Dry camping with satellite TV possible?
Update/Edit: It seems some people were confused by my original post, and I have some new discoveries. Looking into getting Dish Network's Tailgater and VIP 211K receiver. Or anything, really. ...

We have Directv HD with a slimeline SWM setup. Because of the scales built into the mount it is easier to align than our old SD dish. Run things off our Freedom 10 inverter and charge with the converter and Honda eu1000i. Other than spot beam, we do not have issues.

Thanks for the reply.
I know that it is possible to use them dry camping. My questions are: Is there a way around unplugging them everyday? If not, how much wear and tear is going to be put on the system having to cold boot it once a day?
Thanks again.
I lost a HDDVR over the winter while the trailer was stored and plugged in. Directv sent me a new model for no charge under the $7 maintenance fee I pay each month.
