E and W HD feeds for local Networks with HR10

[gadgtfreek]

I just had a AT9 and a HR10-250 installed today in Charleston Sc(we do not have HD locals yet) and was wondering what these were. I cannot view them but they did not show up on my R15. Is there a way to get access to them?

For example

ABCE
ABCW

Channels begin at 80

What are these?

Distant Network Services (DNS) are for customers in areas with no available networks (ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC). They originate from NYC & LA. In some instances where your local affiliate is owned & operated (O&O) by the network itself, it can be legally turned on.

Subscribers can use the DNS tool at DirecTV to see if they legally qualify for the addition of DNS.

Ah. Just saw the HD markers like I see on my locals and wondered if this was good news, oh well.
