Ok... I would consider "gifting"/selling it.. But my first question remains unanswered , I can call up DishTV.. But before I speak to the, I want to know what is the official standpoint - Who is the "owner" of the equipment - The dish, the STB, the other things like the wires etc.. even the VC...Also, gifting/selling means that someone else would be using the connection in my name .. and that could also be a concern as well..Can I sell the equipment without VC? Are VCs available without Dish (I know it was possible in some countries) ..
