Satellite for RVs is not my best subject, so someone else can answer better than I. Lots of people take a receiver out of the house and travel with it. I have found over the years, due to the mess of wiring both in the house and especially the RV, that a dedicated receiver for the RV works best for me. As to the sat unit itself--again, I have never had luck with the tripod units, so got one of the auto portables.
Again, a learning curve to this and good luck.
