I currently have a Superdish and a 811. I don't get channels info for my local HiDef OTA channels with the 811, but i can use the trick that i read the channel info for the sat sd locals which is listed directly above the corresponding HD OTA local.

I currently have voom and want to integrate the 61.5 dish into the The superdish setup without having to spend the money for a DP44 Switch upgrade. I was thinking i could disconect the 105 lnb from the DP34 switch and use that port to connect to the Voom 61.5 LNB (after upgrading it to a DP LNB). The negative would be i would no longer get Channel guide info on my 811 for my Hidef locals.

My question is how does the 942 handle channel guide info for the hidef OTA locals? Is it screwed up like on the 811 (you need to get the guide info from the sat locals, in my case 105* bird), or did they do it right with the 942 and i can get OTA channel guide info directly without having to referance the sat sd local channels.
 
On the 942 you will need to subscribe to your locals and have the 105 conection to get guide info for the OTA digital channels
