I have an OTA adapter and a big outside antenna at home. I also have a four tuner Tablo connected to the antenna. I am setup for at home. But when I take trips in my RV that are in my spotbeam there are usually no local antennas/stations close by. This is when I would want to turn on the local channels. My travel schedule this year will be for April, May and part of June and then September and October. I could have the locals turned off for 7 months and on for 5 months.
