Then either you don't understand, or we are not getting what you want.
From your description you now have a 501 somewhere in the house, not in the kitchen. You want to be able to watch tv in the kitchen also. (so now in two places)
Put the 625 where the 501 is and the 625 can be watched in the original room and in the kitchen. You can either sell the 501 or keep it for future use possibly.
As an alternative (and what I would do) is get a wireless transmitter to transmit the signal from the 501 to the kitchen tv. Picture may not be quite as good, but good enough to watch occasionally and for very low cost to do. If your 501 has a UHF remote (can't remember if it is like the 508 and has UHF) then the remote will work to change the channels from the kitchen.

Check Overstock.com and classifieds on other DBS sites and you might find something in classifieds in your local newspaper. You could even call DISH and see if they have any remanufactured for sale. They have 501/508s coming off lease all the time of course seeing they don't get the $5.98 fee they may not want to reuse them.
