Here’s the plan. I have a b van with a very limited footprint on my roof.I’m looking to remove the over the air antenna to make room for the Winegard Pathway x1. Now for the question . How much of a hassle would it be on rare occasionsi to call or go on line daily to change service locations for network programming. Also is Dish ok with this or do they get bent out of shape with frequent changes? Thanks,

Dish has no problems with your changes. All they want is for you to be a customer.

You can also change your service address by doing a live chat online at the Dish website. And they don't care how often you change it. We are full timers, and sometimes change our service location every day or two as we move from one spotbeam to another.

Do it all the time. You will still get all programing if you don't call them just no locals.

Thanks,on a scale of 1-10 with 10 being “don’t ever call this number again” changing your service address (really just the zip code) rates a .5. we do it all the time and it usually takes about 5-10 min on the phone and another 10-15 min for the change to show up in your guide (faster if you re-boot the receiver after you hang up with DISH). a DISH CSR told me that they expect to roll out an on-line option to change sevice locations (zip codes) without needing to speak or text with a DISH CSR.

Is chat quicker/ easier than the phone call?
