That is for Dish Network/Echostar customers, not DirecTV.

I live about 60 miles from the Dallas market. This maybe just something in your particular area. I beleive i'd go the site survey route like YodaPaul said and stay on them til you get your channels. Nothing more frustrating than paying for something and only getting a small portion of it.

I can tell you that I live about 60 miles from Los Angeles and get very crappy reception. He may live in a western state like California where mountains and canyons severely attenuate TV signals. I agree with going with a site survey...or maybe there is a website with signal coverage maps and diagrams for TV stations. I know that there used to be a site like that for radio stations. It's worth a shot.
