I had done that a few times but was too lazy to install the plugin. :) It seems according to those maps the 103 spot should be stronger than the 99. So I wonder if I am really getting the NY spot since it is so high....

where are you guys finding the maps? I am looking at http://www.dbstalk.com/topic/184044-interactive-beam-footprint-library/ Are these still current? According to these maps I am between the yellow and orange lines, so I would think (and hope) the NYC would be stronger.

I got the screen shots and you guys said the NYC Locals are on the following. 99 s16 - signal 98 99 s20 - signal 100 103 s17 - signal 64 I tried to look on lyngsat and didn't see any NYC locals on 103. There were a lot of NY state locals but I didn't specifically see any NYC locals. Am I...

I am still waiting to get the screen shots for the rest of 99s and 103s.

They get Baltimore locals.

thanks. I will have them try again and wait longer. I think they have had Direct TV less than a year so it hasn't been sitting for years or anything. Are you saying all the -- should go away and at least show a 0?

Thanks. That was my next question. They sent me some pictures and some had the s, c, etc. They did send one for 99s but I don't see one for 103s (I will have to ask for one) but here is the one for 99s which shows N/A or -- for all but 1. I am assuming that means I won't pick them up?

correct. Just wanting to see if i would pick up those additional channels as well. :) i have the superstation package with dish which includes WOR and WPIX so it would be nice to retain them. :)

I haven't used Direct TV but just watched a video on how to check the signal. Just to make sure, I would have them go into system setup, then satellite, then signal strength. Have them choose satellite 99 and look at the strength for 16 and 20 and then choose satellite 103 and look at the...

i am currently a Dish customer so I don't have Direct TV so check the signal strength but I do have family with Direct TV that might be be able to check for me. I have had ADD with NYC locals for years and now thats gone so I am without them. I travel back and forth a lot and like to have the...

So if you subscribe to the NYC Local channels you get pick up the CONUS channels there aren't separate local channels and "national" channels available for RV's and such?

I have been looking and trying to figure out if its possible to pick up HD NYC locals in he 21673 zip code of MD. One of the maps I found shows the spot beam of the NYC locals I am just outside the blue line. First is the white line that extends to south Jersey then the second line is blue...
