I've been with Direct TV since 1994. About the time they started. My parents tried Dish and had nothing but issues. Over the years, I've always taken a spare dish and my bedroom receiver along and it has worked out great.
This past summer while staying in Montana this summer I bought the portable Direct dish called the King quest. I love it, if you are in the trees or blocked, you can move it, or in some cases, climb the ladder and place it on the roof.
If you roof mount one permanent, then, you are stuck and will have to move the rig. This way, you just locate the dish where you need to. I carry a 100' extra coax for that purpose. Thus far, have not had to use more than 50'.
