I have Dish in mine and love it (well I did until I got the free upgraded HD receiver a month or so ago). It's only five bucks a month for the extra receiver.
I had an old hand me down receiver since we got the rig in '08. Got the Wingard dome on the motorhome and it worked great for that receiver. Well, a few months ago, I was informed Dish wasn't going to be able to support the 111 receiver I have. Gave me a nice HD receiver-don't recall the model off hand- for next to nothing. Haven't had much time to mess with it but I think the dome I have doesn't support new receiver. Think I might need the $1,000.00 Winegard Traveler.

Setting up a portable dish every time can be a nuisance, or so I've heard.
