need help with directv dvr?

just got dvr set up by direct tv on friday. when i tried to record a number of shows since i was going to be out of town, i realized that they were "network" shows and not on the satellite. the particular area i am in does not have "local" networks. coincidentally i am moving away for a 3 month project in my motorhome with directv. how can i change my zip code in order to get the "local" channels?

dumb on my part to get it in the first place without checking that item out. any help will be appreciated...

    Local channels are determined by your Service Address location in DirecTv's billing records. You'll need to contact DirecTv to change your service address. Call 800-494-4388.
