61.5 or 129 for future locals

[BCHandy]

First post. First this is such a great site for information. I feel that I'm not completely in the dark sense I started visiting this site. So after calling to upgrade to the ViP211 I had to call back and schedule a new Dish because I don’t have one pointing at 61.5. I know this because of this site. I have a super dish pointing at 110,119,105. So the tech told me that I could aim it at 61.5 or 129 I live in the northeast region, which sat should I have the installer point at to receive future HD local channels. If i can pick up the 129 should i go with it.

If you're in the Northeast, you will most likely point to 61.5 - as this is what I was told signing up this past Friday. I'm in Delaware.

Are you able to receive any Philadelphia stations in HD. I was told that I had to receive Baltimore stations and that i could not get the Philadelphia.

129 will not work in your area

61.5 high in the sky (42) easy to point and very strong signal. I have done many in the great northeast.
