I have had Direct TV with locals for quite a few years. I can get my local Tampa channels up to the Ocala area. But I can go all the way to east coast of Florida and get the locals.
I usually have good luck using my outside antenna for locals if they are within range.
It must have been your salesperson because Direct TV told me the way it is upfront. I am also very satisfied with the service and they appear to treat me pretty good. I just had a receiver quit on me and they shipped a new one free of charge. I do not have their insurance so I was happy with it.
I think also Dish and DTV are not permitted to transmit your locals out of area. So I think it is beyond their control. I think each local area wants you to watch their advertising or something like that.
