I have a 512 receiver that was taken out of service when I discontinued Dish last year. If I sell it will Dish still activate it or is it now obsolete and destined for the recycle bin?
 
It can be reactivated as long as you own it and you left your account in good standing

Thanks for the info, folks. I will make note of the eastern arc restriction when somebody inquires about it, to make sure they will be good to go.
 
No problem there, it was a replacement for a 501 that quit after a long life. So I know for a fact its mine.
 
Then you really need to check the status before selling it then as Dish may have labeled it as "Leased". This does happen a lot when one receiver is upgraded for another.

Yep I would recommend this so as whomever it is sold to isn't upset should something go wrong.
