Hello everyone. I have a Slimline DirecTV dish with a Ka/Ku LNB. I need to purchase a HD receiver but want to ensure compatibility with my dish/LNB.

You really can't buy receivers now, only lease them. Directv would be the best place to go since you may qualify for a free one. You would still pay a monthly fee for it though.
The Contract is when you activate the recvr, whether you own it or lease it, it still needs to be activated, so you would be getting into a contract regardless.Thanks for the reply.
