Wow, a lot of info. But I don't think I got an answer to my basic original question.
If I buy a ligit receiver, and keep it in the RV, will DTV transfer my current service between the 2 receivers 3-4 times a year, or as needed, and free of any monthly charge ? I could call DTV, but I know I will never get the same answer from even 2 different people.
As Ranger Smith has already responded, NO, DTV will not 'transfer' your DTV service back and fourth between the two receivers. AS Ranger Smith pointed out, what needs be done is just add your new receiver to your home account for $6.00 per month and you will get your home service programming on both receivers. You will not be able to 'turn off' your RV service, but at $6.00 per month not really a problem.
DTV does not offer a service like DISH Network's No Contract 'Pay-As-You-Go' service, used frequently by RVers.
