<<We provide Service to Receiving Equipment that is installed in mobile units such as campers, boats and other recreational vehicles.
However, without a permanent land-based phone connection, this Receiving Equipment is not eligible for the additional receiver discount described above, pay per view ordering with the remote control, or certain programming such as seasonal sports subscriptions and local regional sports networks. >>
David,
I checked with KVH and found out that that information is out of date.
DirecTV now allows mobile customers to sign an affidavit and submit it as proof that the 2nd receiver is installed on the same vessel or vehicle as the first. The customer pays full price for the first receiver, but gets the discounted "box mirrored" rate for the 2nd, 3rd, etc. Forms are available from KVH.
This is a really positive change.
It still doesn't fully answer the situation I hope for - that the primary receiver can be in my house, the second (or third) receiver can be in my house, RV, boat or van, and I still pay the "box mirrored" price.
I'll ask again on that. |
