    New Orleans locals question

    I live in Jackson, Miss., and apparently within the New Orleans split beam. Unfoirtubately, based on what I read here, I cannot receive New Orleans locals because they are on 129 sat and I am set up to get 61.5 and 72. Do I have any alternatives, or am I stuck with Jackson locals?
