Well it looks like Mr. Bill is going to sign the legislation on Monday allowing Directv, et al to ditribute local tv signals. I eagerly await. But what does it really mean? I live west of Boston and receive a reasonably clear signal from most of the channels with an antenna. I am not interested in purchasing this signal from Directv or the local cable service. I would spend the 7 bucks to get the national network feeds for the convenience and variety. So I have a few questions for those in the know who care to answer:

1. Will everyone be able to buy those network signals after signing? (DTV claims to be ready for immediate transmission)
2. If not, when is the Boston area (#6)
scheduled.
3. Will we have a choice of local or national?
4. Is anyone aware of any forums dedicated to this subject? (found one supported by, and dedicated to the Dishnetwork) Thanks in advance.
