No, OTA locals don't work with PTAT. What Bobby is talking about is setting manual timers for the local channels

There are only two OTA tuners, so you can't record all four networks at the same time/

I have OTA and Dish satellite locals. As HipKat said they don't PTAT but they come up in the guide and you can watch/record them anytime. If you have a Hopper 3 you can actually set up your own version of PTAT for those OTA channels by simply setting up a continual recording of the four channels at prime hours, manually...

I make sure I record the CBS station before anything else. I can watch what I miss on the other networks using OnDemand, but not CBS.

Tech installed my OTA yesterday. He ended up installing the outdoor antenna indoors. He said the regular indoor antenna Dish uses was cheaper than the one I already owned (which didn't work that well). No complaints. All channels seem to come in great.

I guess I will have to reset all my timers that were set for local channels.

Has anyone else had problems ordering something off the Air Tv website? It keeps telling me that the site is not working properly and try later.

Still hoping for
4-tuner ota or
Support 2x 2-tuner ota

Keeping locals until ota can handle all major networks simultaneously.

That's a wish list for DISH.
