Be aware that you will not be able to use any kind of dome/portable automatic antenna with a Hopper. You will need either a Winegard Trav'ler or a standard Dish 1000 antenna mounted on a tripod that you must point yourself manually.

At a minimum you will have to bring a Hopper (and find room for that big box) and if you want to watch anything on the Hopper on a different TV you will have to run new coax to that location and install the Joey.
