Replace an HR-24?

Hello: I may have to replace my HR-24, which looking at is nowadays considered to be fairly old. I see I can get a replacement from a couple of sites...all purchased essentially new (NOT from ebay), but once I get it...then what?

The house I moved into in 2020 has a direct tv dish installed. I've heard that the dish is no longer required if you have internet service. Can I get the dish removed and get the same tv reception?
