DW and I hope to be fulltiming by July. What satellite tv service do you use for traveling around the country?

I've used Dish for the last 2 years. I'm happy with it.

We use DirecTV so we can get the NFL Season ticket to watch the "home" teams.

Direct TV is the service we take with us when traveling. I have both services with DISH installed on one home and Direct on the other. Not a lot of difference other than the channel line up but the Direct seemed easier to set up quickly. I say this having never done a set up with DISH on the road and I'm sure it's more a perception than fact.

Good luck / Skip

DirecTV with a KingDome on the roof. Good thing we have satellite TV, as we can't pick up the local Chattanooga TV stations with the batwing, due to the mountainous terrain.
