Depends on the fixed SAT system and also the portable you use.

Nope -- they're two entirely different receivers:

Two 211zs

A Hopper would be connected to a TV and a Joey would be connected to its own TV.

I'd go Hopper + Hopper because it doesn't cost that much more, you get another 3 tuners, and you get a backup Hopper in case one fails.
