When you are done with Setup, press GUIDE and go
to channel 2 to see if your off-air locals are now in the
guide. They will have channel numbers like 2-1, 2-2, 2-3,
4-1, 5-1, etc. The name and number box on the left-
hand side of the guide will be darker than the satellite
delivered channels. For a channel that has multiple
versions (like channel 2-1, 2-2), the first is usually (but
not always) HD and the second is SD. However, there
is no hard and fast rule and often off-air HD channels
carry mostly SD programs. In some markets, local
broadcasters may provide more than two versions of
a channel. You may want to edit your choices down by
going to the Edit Off-Air Channels screen as explained
above.
If you are also receiving DIRECTV-delivered locals you
will see those channels in the guide as well. We always
order them with HD at the top, then SD. They will not have
dashes in the channel numbers and the name and number
box in the left-hand side of the guide will be the brighter
DIRECTV blue.
The HD channel will have the 4-letter call sign of the
station (KTLA in this example), while the SD channel will
just have a two-letter city abbreviation and a one or two
digit channel number (“LA5” in this example).
You are now ready to view your local off-air channels
as you can with any of your DIRECTV-delivered satellite
channels!
NOTE: You must subscribe to HD Access in order for the
DIRECTV USB OFF-AIR TUNER to function.
