To the OP, original poster, check out the Winegard site for what they offer. The open antenna like the Trav'ler will give the best reception because it's larger. BUT it's fixed on the roof so where you park may not have the required sky visibility. A Playmaker or Tailgater in their line can be move out to that sky access but there reception may not be as strong.

You can even get a home style antenna, put it on a tripod mount and aim it. But you'll have to manually aim it. Research the offerings and decide HOW YOU want it.
OP has the short/narrow Class B Tellaro.
I've seen several Class B's with a roof mounted dome dish, but never with the Trav'ler. Not enough roof space for that (with dual solar panels, AC, and a vent or two).
And a Tripod Mount would be a PITA to carry & store.

The DISH Tailgater 4 has an ez release mount which would work well for the OP.
