    East Coast Feeds for the west coast

    Although I have seen some extremists who camp and live in small vehicles--agree with you that the Escort would be a stretch- but vans, suv's or similar that are used for temporary living quarters could pass.

    All Amercian Direct has RV waivers available. Read the definition as it doesn't necessarily have to be an "RV" if you have a vehicle you use for "camping" and are using those receviers for that "purpose" Then you can use any address. AS the RV "could be traveling to the east coast.

    do seperators go bad?

    I haven't tried the suspect separator on the "good" receiver. That is worth the time to see if it reacts the same. Just looked at prices and indeed not much to get a new one. Will try the switch after some bowl games tomorrow and see what happens.

My folks had just started a 2 year contract and...

    Depending on where you live. If you are closer to Idaho Falls and live to the east side of the state may not get Boise. Not an expert so maybe someone else is more comfortable with the spotbeam charts. If I am looking at them right you may have a good chance of getting Missoula locals. When...

    For RV waivers the local stations do not have to approve it. They must be requiring the waiver because they think you will be living in the San Diego area not in the boat or RV? I have an RV waiver- did not have to apply or need any waivers. If I wanted them for my house I would need waivers...

    Where can I move to to get National Locals - not Spotbeamed - on 110 or 129

    Not sure why San Diego should matter with an RV waiver. You might want to try again. I live in an area with locals (no exemptions granted by them) - but the point of the program is if you are mobile in the RV (boat) you no longer can get your locals.
