Satellite Question
Ok, So I have read through a bunch of threads about satellite (Directv...). Couple of questions still... 1. Can my home and RV be on the same bill? Should I just order the service with extra...

We have taken our receivers from home for years. You can order PPV while on the road - do not have to be hooked to your phone line. When you do eventually hook up to a phone line, you will be billed for what you have ordered. We used a portable dish for years, then a few years back bought a Winegard Carry-Out automatic dish. It's programmed out of the box for Direct TV, but can be programmed for Dish. Just set it a flat surface with a clear view of the southern sky, plug it in and it will find the signal. Works great.
When we bought our present coach, it had an automatic roof dish. That dish went belly-up last year, so we had a DirectTV Trav'ler automatic dish installed. That's the only dish that would provide Direct TV HD. We recently upgraded to whole-house DVR at home, and DirectTV left one of the old receivers for use in the coach at no extra charge. We now take one receiver from home and use the old one for the coach.
If you subscribe to your local channels, you will not get them while on the road.

??? So you can be out for months watching Pay-Per-View then end up with a big bill when you get home....have to not let the wife and kids know that, could be bad.
