Default Moving DTV Service

Hi Folks,

I live in South Florida and will be moving for aprx 6 months to Plattsburgh NY and eventually move back to Florida.

Question: Can I call DTV with simply plattsburgh's zip code and not the new address, and request them to temporarily change the spot beam so I can receive the local channels to my receivers? With always keeping Florida as my billing address. Once I move back I would repeat the process.

Thank You

You can keep a separate Florida mailing/billing address, but you'll have to give D* your complete Plattsburgh NY service address. They now sometimes require the install to be done by them. And if you have DVRs, they usually will no longer allow self-installs at all.

You cannot watch Plattsburgh locals in Fla and vice/versa.

Thank you for the help Eureka!

I will run another scenario...

Since I own many receivers (8) at the same florida address. If I would use my primary receiver for my RV ; ) and ask for national channels instead of locals, would the other receivers mirror the same signal?

Thanks again!

You would have to have an RV account and I don't think they allow 8 receivers on those.
