Any Directv experts???

I currently use Directv at the lake house (2 boxes) and have Comcast at home. I am interested in having it at my primary home (probably need 5-6 boxes) as well but would like to keep it at at the lake too. I know if I request to move the service, they install a new antenna at my primary and leave the lake antenna in place.

If I do move the service and have pay for enough boxes, can I just leave 2 at the lake and the rest at home, having it at both places? Or do I have to pay for 2 separate complete service packages? How many boxes can I run total at 1 location?

When calling Directv I am told that I must have 2 separate services, but I don't think that is the case. If it was possible, they certainly would not tell a customer that.

Any thoughts or experiences?
