T&T: Direct TV Sat Change?

[Ownyacht at aol.com]

Chuck,
 
I have had the boat in all the markets you mention except Orlando. Houston  
for over 30 years. These markets have all the channels including the  
locals on the 101 sat thus do not require more than one LNB except for  HD.

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?

Doc
