RV Satellite Replacement

My old Winegard MV-3500 satellite has finally bit the dust. It was installed in 2005. I'm thinking of getting a G3 which handles two TVs and good for Directv and Dish. My question to all you folks is should I have it installed on my roof where the old one is or should I just use it as a carry out. Anyone ever have one stolen when it was sitting out??
  • Mine is roof mounted. If I'm in the trees where the sat doesn't work, there are always movies to watch
  • As nice as it is to have it mounted on the roof and just hit a switch. Being able to move it around on the ground to an opening with no trees is a big plus!
  • None stolen yet in 15 years or so. We do put it up when we leave camp.
