Will a Bell 6131 receiver work with a Wineguard G3 GM-9000 portable satellite dish or is it only compatible with a Bell 6400

I'm looking to purchase a portable satellite dish (Winegard G3 GM-9000 portable) to use when on weekend getaways in my RV. They are quite pricey so I would rather check compatibility prior to purchase. I've heard that only the Bell 6400 receiver will work and then only if it's a newer special Bell 6400 receiver. Is there anyone that can shed some information on this. Many thanks Ron

Thanks for your prompt reply. Didn't know it was that complicated. I guess I'll forget this Bell dish idea and enjoy whatever comes over the air.
