This is where you set up two sources, each one of which is configured to receive the channels 
available from a single antenna.

I believe you can still use the same schedules direct subscription for this and use the channel 
editor to "hide" the channels you can't get on each source, but someone with better knowledge can 
clarify that.

I'm in the UK and do similar things with OTA reception here.
