Does anyone know if Paducah/Cape Girardeau HD locals will be added during this upcoming HD expansion? Also, is there a list of upcoming HD locals to be added? when they were adding SD locals, there was always a page that had upcoming markets, but I haven't found one for HD.

thanks

No upcoming lists. DirecTV seems to wait until the markets go live before issuing a press release. Now there are some people who get ahold of the pre-release internal schedule and post a heads up, but that's usually only 3-4 weeks prior to the actual addition of the markets.

Sorry it's just wait and see for our market right now. However I'm in Carterville IL and can pick up all the locals with a Channel Master 4228 antenna. With the Hr20 I never have any issues with signal from my OTA antenna. If you can't have a antenna or just don't want to put one up. The only option is to "move" to Saint Louis. We get there spot beam just find and if you "moved" there you would get NBC,CBS,Fox, and ABC in HD via SAt.

I watched the Bud Shoot Out in High Def on Fox 23 Cape Girardaau. Looks like they turned it on 2/6.
