It means that you're in the Dallas metro area. Go to Lowes and get a $30 Philips set of powered rabbit ears with a +50 gain and hook that up to your Dish receiver (or TV). You may need to orient the UHF block, etc. Apartments are weird. The antennas tend to work better next to windows. Give it a try. Lowes has like a 90 day return policy or something obscene like that.

I have a 622 and a 211 with rabbit ears, since Dish doesn't carry Austin HD locals. (I hope they never do. I get the guide w/o paying $5/mo. for down-rezzed bit starved channels.)
