I recently purchsed the HD Direct Tivo, replacing my standard direct TV. I have a standard reciever in my bedroom, (no Tivo) if I want to put the Direct Tivo in the bedroom replacing the standard reciever, would DTV bill me for the 2nd Tivo? After all I have the one in the living room. I know it makes its daily call and so would the one in the bedroom have to, but because I already have one, would they really charge me to startup the other?

Wrong forum for this question, but:

- You pay $5.99 per month if you have one or more DirecTivo boxes.
- You pay $4.99 for each receiver beyond the first one.

I can't really tell how many boxes you have, but if you have one Tivo box and one non-DVR, you would pay $5.99+$4.99 a month in addition to your programming package. So, in your case, it's the same whether you have 2 Tivo boxes or 1 + a standard receiver.
