Could one of you give us some idea of what Distant Network Channels cost to install, and monthly charge? Does one have to be a Full Timer to qualify for DNC's? We do watch a lot of ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS etc When we are on the road it would be great not to have to call Direct TV to switch the spot beam. Would it effect our service at home? Could one of you that are getting Distant Networks give us some information on this?
Costs nothing to install.
Costs $15/month for either the E or W feeds. You may be able to request that DTV supply you with both feeds like those of us who are grandfathered into both coasts. This costs $20/month.
You do not need to be a full timer, you just need to fill out the paperwork and send it in.
If you have service at home you would need to have all receivers on the same service. That means your home receivers would also get programming from NY and/or LA but nothing from you local TV stations. If you want local Networks and DNS Networks you will have to have 2 completely separate accounts and pay full price for both accounts.
