I had a couple of questions about moving into a house that is literally about a football field away from the house I currently live in. I purchased this home last October and am now looking to move into it. I had a college student that was living in the home but she's since graduated and I think I'd like the new house a little better (even though I'm trying to sell it back to my brother and then move a few miles north into something a little more affordable). Regardless, when my brother left, he left a DISH 500 on the roof. He took the receivers and all of his account information to a new dish at the home he and his wife now reside in.
Here's my question: Can I simply move my receiver from this house to the other house, hook up the wires, and "presto" receive service? One of my receivers has the yellow card (which is the only receiver I currently use) and I only want DISH in one room of the house (the living room). I'd like to upgrade my other box (but don't have the yellow card in it) just so I can receive the distant networks in the bedroom. I contacted NPS about this and they said there was no extra charge for their service on multiple boxes -- will DISH be able to tell I'm using the box only to view NPS?
