DirecTV adds four more HD local markets

We feel the pain of DirecTV owners everywhere that cannot receive their local stations via satellite so we understand how exciting it is when they finally open a new market. Sure, you could always use an antenna for free OTA HD, but how fun is that? Keep in mind though that your existing equipment might not work so power cycle your receiver and if that doesn't make the stations show up, contact 1-800-DIRECTV.

The following markets now have HD feeds of ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox.

• Greenville, SC
• Harrisburg, PA
• Jacksonville, FL
• Spokane, WA

That's about 9 of the 25 HD locals that they promised by the end of 2006.

Could this be a turnaround in Directv's obvoiusly strict policy against any delivery on their promises? Could it be that they are starting to deliver on their promises?

I guess probably not, they are just thowing us a bone. After all those were 3 months late and they still have 16 of the promised 25 left to deliver. Still, I wish I were in one of their HD markets.

I hope you enjoy your Master's tournament in HD. Please say a prayer for me.
