DirecTV refused to switch local channels the last time I called. They said it was not intended to accommodate RVers switching more than a couple times a year. I was unfortunate to get a tech who has taken to the corporate line. Don't be surprised the next time you call when they won't do it.
This post inspired me to contact DirecTV again to pose the question to them. I had done that once before a few months ago and was told there was no issue with changing service locations. However, I understand this is a dynamic business and policies can change frequently.
I did an online chat with a customer service representative and posed the question as if I owned a vacation home (technically true)and used it frequently. I read thru much of their FAQ regarding RVs and my sense was that if I used the term "RV" in my question, it would complicate matters.
I again was told there is no limit to the number of times I can change service locations.
For the record, I don't care about local channels per se, only that I am able to get the major networks (ABC, NBC, CBS, FOX). We DVR nearly everything, so getting the locals via OTA isn't the optimal solution for us.
