Wingard Roadtrip Mission Satelite

The Airstream 396XL has the Wingard Roadtrip Mission Satellite antenna already installed and wired for 2 TV's in the coach and one connection in the curb side storage. I have Dish TV service now and the Wingard Antenna is currently set for Dish and provides SD signal only. What would be the recommend Dish receiver(s) to include a DVR on the main TV. Thanks for any input.

Wires

Here are some pics of the cable and wiring for the Satellite, TV and speakers. These are located in the compartment above the drivers seat. The all seem to have handwritten labels telling what they go to so maybe I can figure it out there is also box to change the signal from Satellite, and on the air and I think a DVD. The first picture has some wires with end connections that I am not sure about.

Wingard power switch

One thing I have not found is the Wingard power switch. The owners manual shows this a on/off rocker switch with light. I found were the satellite wires and cable enter from the roof but so for no switch.

When you say 'power switch' is this what you are looking for?


On my Clipper in is in the compartment above the passenger seat.

Have you got this manual?

This may be of help also.

This is waht Dish said I need

Here is the VIP 211K Receiver that Dish said that I need to connect to the Wingard Roadtrip Mission satellite antenna. Does not have DVR. Although it can receive HD it also accepts SD as well.

Yes I did see an outlet like that, with a small push button and a light that turns green when pushed in. So that is the power switch, not like the rocker switch shown in the manual. Great

Here is more details on the receiver. You can add a separate hard drive for DVR services.
