DirecTV Offering Second Receiver on RV

RVers who have (or want) a satellite dish on their rig, take note.

                   DirecTV, one of the primary satellite TV providers and the choice of many RVers,
                   is offering RV owners the ability to add additional receivers to their boat or rig
                   and qualify for a $4.99 mirroring fee without the land-based phone line, as long
                   as certain conditions are met.

                   RVers who have (or would like) multiple receivers should contact DirecTV and
                   request a Mobile Vehicle Declaration of Intent for Multiple Receivers. The form,
                   which asks for your access-card number, receiver serial number and signature,
                   stipulates: •that you intend to use more than one DirecTV system receiver in a
                   mobile unit and that your vehicle is for personal, not professional, use;

                   •that you understand that DirecTV generally requires that all receivers be
                   continuously connected to the same land-based phone line in order to qualify for
                   the Additional Receiver Authorization Fee that is included in the DirecTV customer
                   agreement;
                   •and that because you now have more than one DirecTV system receiver in a
                   mobile unit, you will be charged $4.99 per month per receiver for each additional
                   receiver instead of the full subscription price for each additional receiver even
                   though these receivers are not connected to the same land-based phone line.

                   For more information on the Mobile Vehicle Declaration of Intent for Multiple
                   Receivers, contact DirecTV at (800) 347-3288. The form is not accessible through
                   DirecTV’s website.

California AB 67 Bill Passed

                      Good Sam is pleased to announce that AB 67,
                      the bill which expands the maximum length of a
                      motorhome permitted in California to 45 feet, has
                      been signed by Governor Davis. Motorhomes up
                      to 45' are now permitted to be driven in
                      California, but if they are over 40' they are
                      restricted to traveling on the National System of
                      Interstate and Defense Highways in the state,
                      which consists of most major highways in the
                      state. California owners of motorhomes from 40'
                      to 45' are required to obtain a special drivers'
                      license, which will include a special written test,
                      a driving skills test, and completion of a self
                      evauluation medical form.
