Server Issues. We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. As of 12:05 PM ET our provider has moved us to a new server.
Things seem to be running better on this new server. However in trying to diagnose the issue (before finding out it was a hardware issue) we made some system changes which we need to undo. So if you find any issues or errors please let us know in the Operations Center Forum.
Thank you for your patience! Sorry for the issue!

If you own the receiver than you could put up another E* dish and they can activate the receiver at there house. If you lease the receiver and put a dish up at there house than that is account stacking and is prohibited by E* rules
I want to say "it depends".
If it's an older receiver that uses a legacy LNB, and the DirectTV dish is using an older LNB AND your relatives only want programming from 119° (most of AT100 and 200), then yes it will work.
However, Dish Network dishes and LNBs to get both 110° and 119° for complete packages and more options is rather inexpensive and then there will be no doubt that it's compatible.
See ya

even if he owns the reciever, it can go to their house for programming. they will have to sign up for their own account with their own bill, and then transfer ownership of his receiver to their account. best option, take advantage of a new customer promotion with dish. call dish or claude. theres lotsa people who would be happy to set them up.
