I know that a Voom receiver will work for OTA digital signals without being attached to a dish (I borrowed a 550 from a friend)
My questions are:
1. Assuming the STB has been activated and not deactivated by Voom, how long will it work as a stand alone STB for OTA signals if it is not connected to a dish?
2. If I purchase a new (never used) receiver from eBay, what needs to be done to get it to work as a stand alone STB? (I assume activation from VOOM is no longer possible.)
Thanks for your help.

I am a Dish Network sub, but was planning on switching to VOOM after my one year contract was over (June 05).
