Does anyone here receive their neighboring local channels in HD? I'm in the Raleigh area, and therefore do not get CBS and Fox in HD, but I do get the CBS/Fox neighboring locals from Greensboro. As these have just been turned on in HD, should I get the HD versions as well?

All depends on the rules on how Signficantly Viewed, applies to HD.

No HD from CBS/FOX here in Cary. From e-mails I sent to/from D* and WRAL in Raleigh dosen't sound like either are close to agreeing on passing HD to D*.

WRAL has a program wher you supply receipt for new HD TV and they will provide you with OTA. You do the install. Did that and it works like a charm in full HD bandwidth and with many more channels than the 2 HD that D* would provide if/when they ever agree on T&C. I have a splitter with the OTA signal to the TV and the HR20. Would be nice for the HR20 to be able to receive OTA.

Anyone know when D* will provide us with this feature?

OTA... Yes, "someone knows"...

See the dozens of other OTA discussion threads for all the "clues"

What OTA did they supply?

What OTA did they supply?

I think it was the Channel Master 4228 but it depends on how far you are from the XMTR. Attached is the info they sent.

Thanks RM226. I don't see us getting CBS or Fox anytime soon. I am close to the towers but down over a hill.

Yep, I've got a 4228 in the attic from Pittsboro, and receive OTA's from both Greensboro and Raleigh great on the HR10-250 and the H20. Just thought since I could get Greensboro CBS and FOX I'd also get them in HD, but it's just not looking that way....
