I have DISH. I pay for the HD programming (I have the Bronze HD package.) I pay additional for local channels. My local channels thru DISH are not HD. If I were to use an Antenna, they would be HD. This is an issue between DISH and the local stations. I am not sure why. I knew it was this way when I signed up. I can get local channels from the Wash D.C. markets. They are broadcast thru DISH either as HD or not - both ways. Not sure what all the issues are - just sayin "that's the way it is" ...... *here*. |
