Can I take my DIRECTV receiver to another location?
Yes, but it will depend on a couple of things. I will start with the Genie system. If you take your Genie or the main receiver to another location the new location must have the same type of satellite dish installed. Plus, if it a 54 model then you don’t have to worry about the power supply.
