Good to know possibly being limited to just one satellite is not a huge deal-breaker. If I really need to watch something important in HD (or extended-tier SD) with a single satellite dish, I guess I'll just have to take the time to adjust the dish to a different satellite :)
I was originally leaning towards using a standard, full-sized home Dish Network dish unit, but the more I think about it, the larger dish along with the awkward, protruding hardware, may be an issue in my storage challenged TT. It would be nice to have the Tailgater or one of Winegard's auto-positioning units, but I just won't be using it enough to justify the cost.
Right now, I'm giving some consideration to the Winegard PM-2000 or GM-MP1. Although the GM-MP1 is relatively inexpensive (~$175) with a very small footprint, the Amazon reviews on the GM-MP1 are not very flattering. The PM-2000 is inexpensive (~$90), more portable than a full-sized dish (collapses somewhat for travel), but still somewhat awkward in terms of storage.
