Had Dish a few years ago, have Comcast and thinking about coming back to Dish. The new three year promo is enticing and I would need 4 TV's connected (Hopper + 3 Joeys. I have asked this question to Dish reps three times and got three different answers: Can I deactivate the 3 Joeys and reactivate them for when I need them? One rep said yes, one said no and one said I would have a return receiver fee on my account until I reactivated the receiver or I could have a second account the other receivers (made no sense to me).
