Another problem you MAY encounter is that ever since the courts ruled against DirecTV and Dish Networks for letting applications like yours slip through, most of the local television stations on satellite were moved to SPOT BEAMS on the satellites - thus, making it physically impossible to receive those channels. (DirectTV places New York Channels on their New York Spot Beam - you would receive KRON-TV - http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/directvusa101.html On Dish Network, the primary New York stations are on the main feed - http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/dish119.html )
Technically, what you are doing is illegal as broadcasters have market exclusivity for their programming. That includes the reception of out-of-market signals, which is what you are proposing. However, it is done almost everywhere as people set up vacation homes, RV's as well as "friends and family" under a master account.
