Default Local Channels for Direct TV in Villages

My new next door neighbors who are in their 80's are trying to find out what the local channels numbers are for Direct TV. I know I could spend time on the phone with Direct TV but due to not having a lot of patience with automated phone options wondered if my great friends on TOTV could just let me know.

Thanks so much!

Connie

Connie, the locals are anything lower than channel 70 (or so) on their Guide. There are really no truly "local" channels that are that close by. They should be getting a number of Orlando area stations.

They should be able to scroll through them on the Guide and see which ones they prefer.

I plan on getting Direct TV as my provider and TCM is one of my favorite channels. Love those old movies.

Thanks.
