Today, DirectTV added a new Satellite to the 101 Lattitude, resulting in new additions to the local channel package. Now, the basic local package also includes the WB and UPN networks as well as a couple of other regional channels.

DirecTV claims that with the new satellite in place, they will now be able offer local service to more regions and eventually expand their offering.
