Thought about that a long time ago. Neither the wife nor I care if we have HD in the rollin' condo, and wasn't ready to spend the $1500 for a trav'ler. Had the old round manual antenna that took a couple of minutes to have it up and running. Going to wait until DirecTV "pulls the plug" to see exactly what happens with my SD....for all I know, I'll still get the package I've had since '94, plus the LDN in lieu of local networks.
Plus what DirecTV is telling me, if I want a whole home, I have to basically get a separate account for the rollin' condo, which means no LDW, and gawd knows which package.
Went down the road with them with my garage. All they would do is give me a mini Genie, which was worthless since the garage is too far from the house. I told them that and they sent a tech out to discover what I already had, then charged (or tried to) me for a "on site technician visit" (49 bucks I think). I told them to come get all the DirecTV stuff, by the next day or it was going to be in the dumptser and I'd go with Dish. They got the idea and backed off the "service charge".....
To be honest ever since AT&T bought out DirecTV the service has gone to **** in a hand basket....
Yep, lots of bad information out there. If you did take the Genie route you don't need a 2nd account you just move the receiver from home to RV. I am not sure what you are referring to when you post "LDN" but I suspect you mean DNS (Distant Networks vs. Local Networks). If you want DNS in the RV while still maintaining local Networks at your home then you would need 2 separate accounts.
