Did you change your address with Directv? Otherwise I am not sure how they would know to stop giving you the Boston channels.

What I do know is that it is against the law for Directv to provide to you those channels if you now live in another market...which presumably have local coverage from Directv. If you are not in a market that has Directv local coverage, you must get the local stations over the air. If you live out in the boonies and can not get even the over the air transmissions, then Directv will give you the LA network affiliates if you are in the West and the NYC affiliates if you are in the East.
