I have a Winegard Travler for Dish on my Monty. The installation for Direct should be the same. Beware of the curvature of the roof and the limits Winegard calls out for space between the outer part of the dish footprint and the roof. I used the Winegard heavy duty mounting plate to keep the roller at the end of the LNB support from running on the rubber roof. I had a machine shop make aluminum wedges to fill the space between the base of the dish and the roof. No troubles in many years. My control head is located in the bedroom closet and the coax from the dish is run to the satellite inputs in the convenience center. I do my best to get "satellite friendly" sites. When I don't, I always have the batwing or the DVR to fall back on.
