RV direct tv

Do you have to purchase a separate direct tv account for an RV or can you purchase the satellite equipment and use your existing account?

Using your existing account you will lose all local channels when you get outside of your spot beam, not sure how to get local channels with DTV as they and all other providers lost access to the DNS channels when the FCC decided to not renew the act that allowed them access them unless DTV has signed a contract to provide them.  An OTA antenna connected to the TV maybe needed to get the locals.
