Dish TVNetwork Network UHF Remote Antenna

Is the attenna stainless steel

Will this antenna work wit a vip 211z receiver and a 21,1 ir/uhf remote

I have a vip 211z, if i buy a remote 21.1 ir/uhf capable, how can use this antenna? my receiver has only one antenna! need antenna splitter?

How do you hook up if you don't have a remote UHF connectin on your TV?
