    I will hazard a guess when they put up the locals they will be on either 99 or 103

    that seems to be the new slots where they are putting locals. They will be in MPEG4
    Winegard 76cm dish, SG2100 motor, Sadoun dual KU LNB..... Directv Slimline SWM 3 LNB.... GeoSatPro 36" dish with Sadoun dual KU LNB... Coolsat 5000 on motorized.... Manhattan RS1933....Directv HR34 (yes the 5 tuner monster) GeoSatPro 200 to aim dishes.... few receivers not set up yet
    Two 6 foot Fortec dish with GeoSatPro dual C-Band LNB "ghetto moved" to various C-Band satellites

    I was wrong...according to Lyngsat the only SD locals on 99/103 in MPEG4 are Alaska/Hawaii

    so they might cram them on 119 if they do put them up (spotbeam space permitting)

    I just checked lyngsat and they showed sd mpeg4 locals for Greenville NC, Williamsport PA, LA, and Denver.

    This link shows one:
    DirecTV USA on Spaceway 2 & DirecTV 11 at 99.2°W - LyngSat



    This one has a couple more:
    DirecTV USA on Spaceway 1 & DirecTV 10 at 102.8°W - LyngSat



    If you go through the hd link they don't show, but if you use the America link they do.
