I apologize in advance if this has been discussed before however I couldn’t find find anything after searching. I am to able to receive 3 DMA OTA locals. However, my guide only shows info for my actual DMA. My local DMA is Flint, MI. The guide is not showing info for Lansing, MI local OTA channels.

My OTA will show information for just NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS, but not info like The CW, ION, Antenna TV, which are also on our OTA. Not sure why, but Dish Tech is not unusual.

Similar for my Flint locals which is also provided by Dish. Just wish they would also show info for other DMA’s that I can receive via OTA (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX).

According to James Long's local channels list, Dish is not providing OTA guide information for 006-01 WLNS.

The list does include OTA guide data for several other Lansing stations. Do you receive any of those stations OTA?

That is how it shows up on my OTA non Primary Locals out of Terre Haute, Indiana. The Tech who installed my OTA a few months back, said some of the Non Primary Locals will show up this way on the Guide. I am just happy, that I got my OTA. Two of my Primary Locals were dropped with Carriage Disputes with Dish, and for some reason, I just haven't gotten around of taking off Dish Locals, when I have them on the OTA.

Interesting. Here is the list of the OTA guide data that Dish provides for Terre Haute:
Terre Haute, IN
OTA Program Guide Data:

WUSI2 TSID 0x0415, Subchannel 02 (DISH Channel 15141)
16-03​
WUSI3 TSID 0x0415, Subchannel 03 (DISH Channel 15142)
22-01​
WVUT TSID 0x0487, Subchannel 01 (DISH Channel 5265/7906)

It looks like mostly PBS subchannels, and NBC, but none of the other major networks.
