Direct Tv Sat & Go Info Needed


Ok these questions are for any you Direct Tv Sat Guys, I am in an area in the Florida Keys that will not have Digital Coverage after June 12th
and I am thinking of buying one of the New Sat & Go Direct tv battery powered units, the details are kinda sweet, Sat tv in a suitcase.
Just a little pricey @$499.00

(1)  Am I required to sign a 2 year Contract with DTV when I purchased the unit myself, If not can I only have it activated for the time frame I am really buying it for
      The hurricane season June thru December. and any idea of the cost of the monthly service

the customer service people don't have a clue and 2 hours on the phone with them( I was passed around from agent to agent so much I felt like a whore at a kegger party)

(2) the reviews says it only receives the 110 satellite what is the chanel plan for the 110 bird, I am mainly interested in the weather chanel & maybe the Miami Stations
     Power is not a issue I have a backup power source

Just the Boy Scout in me trying to be prepared, I have my Internet covered via Sprint Mobile & data cable as long as its not a cat 4 and tear the towers down
I tried the tv on a pc just can't find very many active local stations

Thanks
