Dish TV

We have 3 Dish Network receivers. Two of them in our home and one in our rv. When we use the one in the rv, Dish changes our address on all our receivers. I have tried to explain that two of them will never move from the existing address. If we don't change the address, we do not get our programing. We know we will not get locals, and that is okay. Has anyone else had this problem?

  • You don't need to change the address to get your programming. why do you think you do? it's all national except your locals. leave the address set at your home and travel. If locals are important then change your "service"address , you won't get locals at home but you aren't there right ? As said all receivers on the same account are "supposed" to be in the same location
  • Go talk to the wall for 30 mins. see if you have it right after that.

    The correct answer!!
  • As said, service address changes are for the entire account, not individual receivers. If you don't care about getting the local stations where your RV is, then don't change your service address. You'll still get all of the other none spot beamed programming.

    As far as I know, when you request a change all receivers are changed, regardless if you keep some of them at home.
