Just had 622 installed Question about OTA guide

[Kevin_Texas]

I just had 622 installed. Since then I no longer get guide information for OTA. The channels are listed but no guide info.

I did change my programming and removed Dish Local. Is this causing the OTA not to show guide info?

Yep, you won't get the guide data unless you sub to the locals

Thanks that is what I was thinking. I guess there is a mapping between the Dish local and OTA channels

This seems a little odd to me.
I subscribe to the Philly locals, I also recieve distants from Denver, and LA.
OTA, I am able to receive:
All Baltimore, DC, and some Lancaster PA channels.

Even though I don't subscribe to the OTA cities, I do get all the guide info
for those cities.

This is on my 622. But the 921 that I just got rid of, was the same.

Doesn't matter if the OTA is the one that is subscribed to or not. If you get locals, you get guide info for OTA.
