Selective Local HDs???

Buffalo only offers CBS, NBC & FOX in local HD. No ABC or PBS? I know I can get the OTA but why would this be a selective "turn on"? Are other markets "partially" turned on? What is the fix?

Dish does not offer full lineup of locals in most markets. Most have the big four and thats all. There is probably a contract problem with your local ABC as the reason why you don't have that one. There may be about 3 markets with the CW in HD, and even fewer with the local PBS. Consider yourself lucky as Dish doesn't offer any HD locals in most dma's thus far.

Yeah that sucks, no CW, that's why I got an OTA antenna connected to my DVR and still kept the locals from DN fo the guide and to have redundancy of local channels in case I want to record more than 1 or 2 local channels at the same, since most of the good stuff is always at 8PM.

I receive HD through my CM4221 antenna hooked to DISH 622. I have a YouTube antenna on the wall using the ANT1 connection on my TV, just in case I want to watch OTA while recording another OTA.
