Yes I have the LOCAL CHANNEL REGION set to LOS ANGELES and LOCAL CHANNEL set to ON. When I key in Channel 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11 etc using SAT Echostar package, nothing happens and the channel remains on that currently watched. Do I need Echo 7 to receive my local "LOCALS"?
Thank you Sir!

Try the sat button and then go to all satellites then try your channels again.

For what it's worth I also do not have the "local" option when I select the "sat" button on my remote. I have local channels on and local selection. When selecting "sat" on the remote I get the following options;
1. Echostar 8,10
2. Echostar 7
3 Echostar Package
4. BEV Package
5. All satallites

Locals with Ultra- Menu,User setting, Turn local channels on search for your city and select it, and rescan for channels. Local channel mapping working perfectly on my Ultra.

Re: How-To Do Your Locals
viewsatultra go to usersettings enter 0000 go sistemsettings scroll to bottom follow on screan instructions you see a list of citys in allstates chose the one you want be shure you have local channels turned onit will be at the very bottom of systems settings then do a auto scan of 119 110 if you use auto it willnot put the same channel in 2 times when you do this skan be shure you go to scan all first good luck works for me in n.c.

Re: How-To Do Your Locals
I'm having a problem with viewsat ultra VS2000 too. I did everything that was stating in this thread and this is what I'm getting.
go to menu, then User Settings. This is the options that I'm getting
Screen Type
Channel Mode
Menu Transperancy
Menu Language
Audio Language
Information Timeout
Beep for scanning
Sort by SID
There are no other options, how do I choose my region?
