Have questions about our local channel offering? You'll find the answers below. If you're a DIRECTV customer, you can also tune to Channel 900 for local channel updates.

In how many markets will you offer local channels?
As many as 20 cities in the next three months.

Why don't you begin offering local channels in all those cities at the same time?
We want to ensure the picture and sound quality of these services, so we're launching several cities in stages over the next few months.

Why don't you offer local channels in my city?
Because there are more than 1,600 local TV stations across the country, no single satellite provider has the capacity to carry them all. We'd love to offer every local channel in the United States, but because of our limited capacity we had to choose the stations that would serve the greatest number of our current DIRECTV customers. As technology advances and our capacity expands, we do plan to offer local channels to other cities.

Will you offer local channels to cities other than those you announced?
We expect to offer more local channels as technology advances and our capacity expands.

I live in a small town, far from a big city. Will you ever carry my local channels?
Our current plan is to serve about 50 million homes, or about half of the TV households in the country. These will be in the larger TV markets because we're trying to serve as many DIRECTV customers as possible. You may want to try accessing your local channels via an off-air antenna connected to your DIRECTV System receiver.

In my city, you offer local feeds of ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX. Will you carry more networks later?
We don't currently have plans to offer more stations in your area, but we'll let you know if other channels become available.

Why don't you carry all my local channels?
We're looking into adding other stations in some cities, but our goal is to bring the most-watched network stations to as many people as possible. If we added more channels for some cities, we wouldn't be able to serve as many cities in total.

Why do customers in some cities need new receiving equipment?
Our goal is to provide local channels to as many cities as possible using the satellites that carry most of our other programming, in orbit at 101 degrees West Longitude. Customers in these cities can receive local channels from us with their existing DIRECTV receiving equipment. But to serve more cities, we have to use all our available satellites. This means using satellites that are at different positions in the sky (110 and 119 degrees West Longitude). Customers need special DIRECTV equipment to receive signals from those satellites.

Can I get a different city's local channels?
The new law allows us to offer you only the local channels for the TV market area where you live.

How much does the Local Channel package cost?
The monthly cost for the local channel package is $5.99 a month and includes NBC, ABC, CBS, FOX and the national feed of PBS.
