cj_views said:Many here seem to have this notion that without the local channel provisioning (provided through spot beam) they will be denied access to the 4-6 nationally broadcasted network channels using OTA alone. This is simply not the case. Directv has provided a provisioning for any subscribers that are unable to receive Network Broadcast can nevertheless subscribe to any of these network broadcasted channels. The only caveat to this is that they will not see their ?local? news broadcast. Well, so what!
Directv:
?Channels 389-399: DNS Locals These are only authorized for subscribers who cannot receive ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, CW, or PBS stations locally (although subscribers within the local market area of any of these receive them both on the local channel number and on the 389-399 series channel number). ?

Seriously though, have you ever heard of LOCAL emergencies and SEVERE weather?
Maybe you do not care about local channels but you are one out of 19+ million subscribers.
Everyone is not as lucky as you to have perfect OTA reception.
