Winegard does not want to sell something specifically listed as not to be used by RVers. If you look at a Hopper as it comes out of the box it says "Do not move while plugged in".
That's why we disconnect power to it when driving --
as with any hard-drive based DVR. This does
not say that you should not use a Hopper in an RV.

They are talking about not moving the box in your house, much less driving down the road and beating the bejesus out of the box. Dish does not want the hard drive to break. If you don't believe me, call Dish and tell them you want to have a Hopper installed in your RV. Let me know how that goes.
Here you go, Bill. This is a saved
DISH Customer Support conversation I just had. DISH would
like you to use the 211 receivers, but they're ok with Hoppers.
Again, who told you that DISH does not support using a Hopper in an RV?
