The Slingbox method works, worldwide. My coworker transferred to Switzerland for 2 years. He was complaining that he couldn't watch the Wolverines anymore. I told him that if he paid for my sports package and my increase in cable modem package, I'd let him keep a Tivo HD and Slingbox at my house. He installed a Slingcatcher on his TV in Switzerland. Worked fine.
The other day I counted my OTA channels in the SF Bay Area. I receive about 58 or so and I know w/ some antenna tweaking I could probably get about 10 to 15 more. Granted 2/3's of those are Spanish, Chinese and Korean.
