No it won't work.
Each sat dish has that arm and at the end the thing called an lnb.
They only work for the service they were intended for.Also the sats are out different locations, so the dish must be reaimed towards the Directv sats.
So you need a Directv dish and pointed at the Directv sats and the Directv sat receivers.

OOps sorry about the double post and the the accidental paste. I also Know you can, all you have to do is adjust your dish to the mounting position to match the satellite that you want to recieve.
