I have directv nfl sunday ticket and mlb programs we are going to the inlaws for a week can i take my card or box with me and hood it up to there satellite? is there anything wrong with that or are the two (box and satellite) married in some way?

Thanks

The box and access cards are married. You can take your box and plug it into the inlaws sat. Its a violation of the contract with Directv but I dont see any harm in a short week. It might want to be attached to a phone line. Advanced packages are fickle like that but I took an H20 to a friends house several times and no issues.

to Sat Guys BTW.

Where you were you probably could not get locals from D*. Where you are now you can. That disqualifies you for distant locals.

Do as you plan. No biggie. However, do not connect any phone line but your own. It will just confuse them and may get you disconnected. It is a safety feature to protect you if your receiver is stolen.
