I just got off the phone withy direct tv and they said that you cannot "just move a box between locations and retain service". They told me that I could "pause" one location and move to the box to the second or "add" another account for the entire separate account fee.

I have read here that if you have a second dish (how ro from whom I don't know) you can just transplant a box from your home to the lake without direct's knowledge or approval for no additional fee. Based on my limited understanding of how this stuff works I am inclined to believe this is true and direct cannot prevent it so they do what they can to "convince" someone that it cant be done.

Before I commit to switching from Verizon in Mass (I hate verizon anyway) I just wanna here from someone that actually does this without any additional cost or issues.

Also, how would I get another dish and get it installed...
