We just don't tell them we are on the road. This only works if you have a stick house. We only pay the $4.99 for the second receiver which we use at home and also when we take the DirecTV with us. We can get the local LA channels at their assigned numbers but also get NBC and ABC up on a higher number (500 something). So far we have not used it when we are farther away from home. We check out the campgrounds we are going to for cable and don't take DirecTV if there is cable. However, we are finding the cable at many CG is not that great. If there is a boxing match coming up, then DirecTV goes with us. We have never connected ours to a phone line. If we want a pay per view event, we order on line or by phone. Like anything else, I think it depends who you get on the other end when dealing with customer service. In the five years we've had it, we only got one bad guy, the rest have been great.
Happy trails....................
