I just got off the phone with Dish about my loss of 3 local channels (cw, cbs, nbc) last night. The account specialist mentioned they are in negotiations and hopefully they will be back soon but I asked about OTA but the account specialist wasn't sure what was all involved. My quick research it looks like I need to do the following
1) Purchase a DISH OTA usb module
2) Plug in the DISH ota usb module, with a coax antenna connected to it
3) Go into Dish settings, my diag, ota and set it up.
Am I missing anything or is that simple? I know sometimes you have to call dish to activate a feature and want to know that ahead of time just in case. Also is there a good vendor who sells the Dish OTA inexpensively or is Dish known to give breaks when people have lost local channels? I know it's inexpensive but I wouldn't turn down a deal especially since I wasn't expecting to lose my locals.
