Neighboring Local Channels

[harrisburgpatv]

Not sure how I came across it (I think it was on here!), but I found out that in Dorchester County, MD, DirecTV offers Salisbury, WCAU from the Philly market, and all of the Baltimore stations.

I currently "live" in the NYC market. Is there anywhere that DirecTV offers a mix of NYC and Philly locals, or anywhere else around PA/NY/NJ/MD that a mix of locals are offered?

If you can pick them up via an OTA antenna. You can use the AM-21N ATSC tuner.

The poster isn't getting either OTA in Harrisburg.

I don't think there is. There is a hidden place on the Directv site for this. I think this is the link, my phone is being stupid since AT&T has worthless coverage.

ejb1980, when I set my AM-21N up. I had to use Rhinelander, WI as my Secondary zip. Otherwise I would have been missing two channels. The Spreadsheet at http://www.dbstalk.com/topic/200951-transponder-maps-domestic-latinam-data-refresh-6252014/ is somewhat helpful. But you have to figure out what other market to use as your secondary.

You can use several secondary markets.

Thanks, ejb1980, that link was very helpful! It looks like if I were to "move home" in Franklin County, I'd get my real locals plus DC. However, it doesn't look like there are any locations which would enable both Philly and NYC locals (I'd have thought Central Jersey would be a good spot for that). I'm still poking around on it with other spots..

I live in Franklin County, the significantly viewed locals page on the Directv website needs updated. As of yesterday we have lost all of the DC locals, letters went out a month ago that the DC locals would be dropped.

Yeah, the site isn't perfect. Here, Rockingham Co, NC does not have WSET ABC 13 listed as a SV local - but it's there.
