Locals are $5.99 without a DishFAMILY, AT60, ... package, but drop to $5 if you pay monthly for AT60. The annual AT60 is $330, but then locals go back to $5.99. That lets you squeak by under $40 at $39.99 (dunno about your tax - I have none).
$29.99 AT60
$5 Locals
$5 Addl Rec on 508
$0 DVR fee
But if you were to replace the 811 with a 942, you'd have
$29.99 AT60
$5 Locals
$5.98 DVR fee
$0 Addl Rec
$40.97 Total
You said "I do not need the PVR", but I think you were just mistaken.
The 942 would let you record the OTA HD (but you couldn't subscribe to DISH HD packages) and has a lot more recording space than a 508.
The 508 would probably be easier to come by, costs less to purchase, but you'd get more than $.98 in benefit each month IMO.
