OTA EPG Guide question

[TLaz]

I live in an area where the local channels are on the 121 degree satellite. I don't have the required dish to receive them. Can I still expect the OTA EPG to show the OTA program info using my Dish 500?

EPG Question

The answer to the question is that you must have a 121 connection to receive the OTA EPG data. Thanks to Jason Nipp for his help.

What about the EPG from the OTA station itself?

I hate to be dense, but I thought that the 811 received the capability a while ago to decode the Program Guide data transmitted as part of the OTA transmission? However, even with 284, I could not see that data, as of last night.

I assume I was smoking something, right?

Thanks.
