Do you keep the DirecTV receiver in the coach when in storage? I use a manual crank up Winegard dish, so that part is not an issue for me, but if I leave the DirecTV receiver unplugged for more than a week it loses its programming, and I have to call DirecTV and have them send a new signal to it to reprogram it. To avoid that issue I remove my receiver from the coach when we finish a trip and keep it plugged in when not in use. My son has a system similar to yours, and he continually has issues with it finding and locking on to the signal.

I can usually have the crank up dish locked on to the signal and be watching TV in less than 5 minutes. Sometimes the high tech stuff is more trouble than it's worth.
