But as a start DNS channels are not local they are Los Angles or New York depending on which area you live.

Not all local stations have agreed to let DTV carry there programming and if yours have not then you will need an antenna and probably the AM21 depending on which tv receiver that you have.

Re: Just ordered Direct-TV question local HD channels........

Yeah and that distant network criteria has gotten REAL STRICT

But because Key west was served by translators from MIAMI.... but not for ten years now, and also all MIAMI channels on cable.... though 160 miles distant and NO way to recieve off air even with a 50 ft tower... we are deemed to be MIAMI market now... and briefly had West Coast distant locals, being a night person I liked and few PT conflicts... and football runover into 60 Min was NEVER an issue.

But no... the Miami stations forced DISH to deny me that alternative even though there was NO WAY I could receive them off air.

And now I have the equally foreign MIAMI stations instead of LA, at a time I prefered. Not like in KW I will be patronizing ANY loca/ non net wide advertiser on the MIAMI stations.... especially with current gas prices, we like the Keys and DREAD going to gangland fa$hion adicted MIAMI..
