Distant Locals?

[drew2005]

I have my locals as per the Digital Home Advantage promo. But I was wondering if even though I have my locals, if I still qualify to receive distant locals from New York and still keep my locals too? I am not reffering to the superstations, I am reffering to actual distant locals. I am in Oregon, and i'm looking at 110, 119, & 148. If I request a wavier (via online form) what happens and what are my chances of being accepted? If I am accepted, are the channels automatically added to my programming, or does it just add a note to my account saying i'm aloud to add those channels?

yes, you would get to keep you locals if you do qualify for distants.

Depends on where in Oregon you are. In the Portland DMA both KOIN (CBS) and KGW (NBC) are very good about granting waivers, KATU (ABC and KPTV (FOX) are not. Good luck.
