In short, you are good to go!
Careful, that's not entirely true. Depends on WHICH locals you're signed up to get. Locals for the largest metro areas are sent on normal satellite channels, but some of the smaller metros get their satellite locals via 'narrow beam" satellite channels, which won't get reception if you're very far removed from that area. I'd guess what you say is likely correct for the ATL locals though.
