I have a Pioneer 810H (Tivo with a DVD burner). Around Labor Day, I got
a message from TIVO telling me I had to do a setup. Like all the sheep
in the world, I followed directions from "them". well...
My Tivo is set up with an antenna and Direct TV. I told Tivo this when
I did the setup. Now, after the setup, I can only get my local channels
through the antenna ... Tivo won't access the local channels via Direct
TV ... before the setup I was able to access my local channels through
both antenna and Direct TV.
Any ideas how I can get my locals to be viewed through both Direct and
antenna?

It sounds like you may have chosen the wrong DTV lineup when you did
the setup. If the TiVo is using a lineup without the locals, you
won't be able to tune them. See if there are other lineup options for
DTV.

I've had this happen before and had to call DTV to get it resolved.

Call DirecTV and tell 'em to give you back the locals. Should take less
than 5 minutes. This is a (semi-)common issue.

The problem is not DTV ... when I just use my satellite receiver, i can
get the locals, but when I try to access through my Tivo is when I can
only get the locals through the antenna

The problem IS DTV. Your two receivers have unique cards in them.
Getting stations on one does not mean you get them on the other.

No - they don't have a DirecTiVo, they ONE DirecTV receiver with an
Pioneer DVR-810H connected to it. See the post that started this
thread.
It is the TiVo. And it sounds like the wrong lineup was selected.
