Local stations on satelite
« on: September 17, 2010, 06:49:00 AM »
I live near the border of my state (NC) and my address is considered in the marketing area of the state adjacent to me (Norfolk VA).  I can not get local NC stations via satelite.

Can I drive 50 miles and buy a satelite system that will receive local chanels from NC?  If a billing address is the problem, I can have the bill paid out of a different bank account.

The cable providers here can feed us NC stations but they have to jump through hoops to get it to work.  

Anybody have a solution to my problem?  Why does the satelite company care what local stations I receive?
