You can just use your same setup and change to the DISH home style antenna. It doesn't really take any special hardware if you are just going to use the Hopper. As long as you can get the output from the Hopper to all your TV's you are all set. That sounds like what you are doing now so that should not be a problem. As with your current setup, you will be able to watch 1 channels and record multiple channels. All TV's will have to watch the same thing unless you add a Joey so 2 different people can watch 2 different channels at the same time.
DISH does have 2 different sets of satellites (Eastern Arc and Western Arc) but most travelers will do just fine with the Western Arc LNB setup. With a bit of work, the EA and WA setups can be made to be interchangeable.
