Adding Satellite dish
It is a tough decision. The compromises with an in-motion unit are significant -
they always work less-well than an open-face unit. Why? Because with satellite, dish size is important, and in-motion have the smallest dishes of them all. However, if reception while under-way is an important criteria the compromise may be worth it. For me, I decided 3 years ago, which was prior to my BB days, that I would not buy any more TV items for home or coach that was not HD-compatible. For DirecTV that would have ruled out in-motion as well, although it is at least technically possible to do in-motion TV with Dish network. For in-motion listening Sirius or XM does the job nicely.
