I have DirecTV in my house. 2 TVs, 2 receivers. The living room is HD, the bedroom is SD.
When going on, say a snowbird run, I take the bedroom box(SD) and put it in the motorhome. My set-up is basic...tripod, dish, strength meter and compass.
I get the coordinates from the DirecTV website.
Seeing mine is a basic...I don't set it up until I'm at my destination. Most cgs have cable, anyway. My setup can take 10-20 minits,depending.
I tell DirecTV nothing....just pay the bill on time. Local channels thru the Batwing...all goes into a passive junction (switch) box. Small TVs (19" or less) don't really need HD anyway.
I do not have, or need, any extra "feeds" ($) like East Coast or West Coast.

We upgraded to the Genie last year. DirecTv would not send us the equipment to install ourselves and insisted on sending a tech out. No problems at all. The installer was well versed in installing in a RV. Basically all he had to do was unplug the old equipment and plug in the new Genie system. We are full timers and our service address is SD but the install was done in MS.

DirecTV installed a new receiver in my new trailer just last month. I told the customer service rep just to send the receiver out and I would install it, she said an installer had to do it for "liability" reasons. They did not charge me for the install. Took the installer less than 10 minutes total.
