    RUMOR - FOX HD on Dish for SuperBowl? No Way.

    I'm confused about this whole O&O thing. I live in the Hartford , Ct market and have Fox in my locals. Does this mean Fox HD would be available to me as my locals are or would I need OTA antenna?

My question is this, if my programing includes local channels, do I still need an OTA antenna to get locals on 811 or is that just for local HD? I am due to get my system installed Fri. 17th...
