Answered my own question with a little more research - The dish is in my RV which we brought to a football game out of our "spotbeam" area. Hadn't had the occasion to travel outside the area in a whileso I knew nothing about directed signal until I thought something was wrongwith my system. The last time we visited this part of the country, I could seemy locals when I was here but now I have found out that they are no longeravailable nationwide. Thanks for your responses.
