Switching from Dish to DirecTV

Archived from groups: alt.satellite.tv (More info?)

I'm making the switch from Dish to DirecTV, mainly because I want Tivo.

Question is, what can I do with my existing Dish equipment? Junk it, or sell
it? What about the cards, can they be re-activiated if someone buys it?

Okay, so the cards serve zero purpose once I de-activate my account. Thanks!
That's what I needed to know!
