Doc, The spot beams are transponders on the same sats that the other
programing comes from. We have had locals in Houston, Miami, Baltimore and
Orlando with our single LNB. You do not need a dual set up for every locals
market. We have not found one yet that needs dual LNB but we have not been in
all markets. It is my understanding that a dual LNB is needed for HD and that
would include locals. Chuck

The  fact that you never changed from NY is why you don't need two LNBs to
get  "local" channels - but, you're getting the NY locals, with NY weather, 
traffic, commercials, etc.  Technically you are committing a no-no by 
getting these channels when you don't live in NY... oh  well!

Ray,

I am not getting NY locals, I am getting Ft. Myers locals. I changed when I
 moved into the house, which is near Ft. Myers. The mystery remains...why
am I  getting, on a single LNB KVH C3, the Ft. Myers locals and the 101 sat
at the  same time with no moving of the antenna. It is locked in place.

I don't know how to get any clearer on this. Ft. Myers, last time I looked 
at their website, required the 2nd LNB to get local channels. I have three
LNB/s  on my house.

My original question remains...has Direct TV changed something?
