Newbie to RVing and this forum with a satellite question

Thanks Bill.
I figured it wouldn't be cheap, they told me it was 2k for the system in the first place. I was just wondering between the new portable set ups or the roof mount, which way I should go. I like the idea of the roof mount, nothing on the ground to worry about. But if I couldn't get the gear to still use the roof mount, i'd hafta go portable.
