Methinks that a $2300 object on my roof would be just begging to be stolen...

I dunno, but TV is one of the first things I want to get away from while on a road trip!

Theoretically, you could use your existing receiver and just mount a dish on the roof. Though, it would only work if you weren't moving (since the dish needs to be aimed fairly precisely at the satellite).

I don't think this would work too well, its hard to lock on to signals with portable dishes and while moving down the road its gonna be worse.
