[Stouk]

I just wanted to say thanks for all of the great info. Hopefully everything will go as planned when I order from Dish.

Thanks again

You mentioned AZ locals but not which ones. If its Phoenix, you REALLY luck out.

locals for Phoenix for SD are on 119
HD locals for Phoenix (the big 4 networks) are on 110

Even if its Tucson, you're still OK
SD locals are on 119
HD locals arent avaialble yet

so you can do what Foghorn mentions and only need 3 satellite slots (110,119,61.5)

Iceburg,
To be precise, I live in Mesa(Phoenix suburb), which means SD locals will be on 119 and HD locals will be 110. As such, as you and foghorn mentioned, I can do away with 110, 119, 61.5.

Thanks again for all your help and time.

I 'd also like to say thanks to you for allowing me to post in your thread and not taking any issues with it.

Appreciate it.

Welcome all to the Dish Family, we can all get along!
This thread is a great example of a helpful bulletin board.
And Dish has Charlie and Tech Chats. Now thats a company for the customer (and tech geeks)!

I just added a french channel and now get free previews of other foreign channels for free. How nice!
