You will get more than that. The Wingard wing will work fine. Pretty much everything works fine around there.
 
Last week I installed the triple LNB which was very easy to setup.
Today I took the plunge into HDTV I called Direct TV customer retention and got a very good deal on the HR10-250 and the HD package
Also purchased a Panasonic 34" HDTV Monitor (CT-34WX15) from Circuit City
Im using one of my R10's on the new set at the time what a great picture watching the local channels for the football games.
Tomorrow the HR10-250 will be installed by Direct TV .
I may wait until the big change happens before investing in a OTA
Now if Direct TV would only give me a shot at installing one of those new dishes :D

I love doing OTA in N.VA. Aslong as you don't live around 1million tall trees everything works.
