Why do you subscribe to locals? (Old)

[Hall]

It is...Local Information.

To me, and I suspect others, "local information" means "local news (and information)".

that's what I meant. the stuff you could get from a newspaper.

 

[dfergie]

is there a way to fix the poll to add that?

Added guide info option...

 

[KenSoren]

We are on the fringe area for OTA programs but get them through Dish to insure reception - but the excellent guide information is worth the $5 per month alone.

 

[Yes616]

I am too far away from the cities to get OTA without adding a $1000.00 antenna set up. Yeah, I would need a very tall tower to start with to see the networks and everything else.

 

[Examiner45]

For the guide info only and recording more than 2 locals at once even if that means using one or more of the horrible SD feeds I get around here.

Actually, for me, the guide info, particularly for the networks, is off; especially during prime-time. I have had House cut-off at the end multiple times because the guide was wrong; same for Heroes and several other shows at one time or another. It frustrates the hell out of me...

i had the same problem, i just adjusted the recordings to add a few mins to the end of the programs.

I am about 110 miles from the transmitter towers, in a low lying area, and am not covered by LP translators.

You have to have a have a very big antenna on a tall mast or tower.

An antenna on the rooftop doesn't cover it.

Can people "re-vote" now ?

so would that make you a 1) or a 2)?

might be a better choice to kill the poll and start a new one????

 

[cappy29]

To watch football.

 

[tracyt]

Now that you added guide info.....
Can you change my vote???

 

[dfergie]

might be a better choice to kill the poll and start a new one????

I believe I can strip the poll... and start anew...

 

[pabeader]

I believe I can strip the poll... and start anew...

please do?

 

[Grandude]

Just another poll with inadequate choices.
I want to watch local news and weather,
I want to watch network programming,
I want to be able to record more than one program at any one time,
I can't get locals OTA,
I want guide info for advance recording situations

Perhaps a poll would be more useful if better thought out and ability to check multiple choices.

Sorry, I'm in a grumpy mood today.............
