I have direct tv stream, called and asked them how I could watch New York Channels in CT. They told me to change my zip code and it should work, but when I try it says that it’s already using my billing zip. Any ideas how I can do it?

When we first got U-Verse, we got the New York locals, but then they went away for us. Sucked, because if what I like to watch is not on our local station for whatever reason, I was often able to catch it on the New York affiliate.

High-definition question

Right now I am receiving the broadcast networks {CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, PBS and CW} from DirecTV not in high definition. I think most of the channels come out of Los Angeles and New York City.
