Nope, just the receivers.
Thanks.. That's what I thought but wanted to be sure..
They tell you exactly what they want. They do want various accessories, such as any DECAs, BBCs, Band Stop Filters and the remote (minus batteries). Which I did think was a bit odd, as I thought the DECAs and such were considered owned.

They ASK for those things, yes. All they REQUIRE is the receiver and correct access card. You won't be charged if the other items are missing.
It is just the receivers and remotes that they want. As an installer myself when I am doing a Dish install for a previous Directv customer, I like to harvest the BBC. I never know when I will have to use one or do a service call for one.
Even though you don't return the dish, it's still worth something. I've always managed to sell mine for a $50 or so. You can also get a few bucks for the remotes.

I got $50 For My Slimline Back In June When i cancelled service and moved:D
At least they don't require the LNB like Dish.
