METV Chicago Dishnetwork

[11inches]

great info...amazing how what seems to be so simple is so complicated.
all that said, i'd be all for METV sitcoms to be on full time on DISHNETWORK aka ECHOSTAR.
i hear PERRY MASON is shown on METV2 or something in Chicago everynight.
sure would be great to watch this old classic...i love it also for the cars of the day. Raymond Burr aka Perry Mason, loved cars. as did fellow Illinoisian ROCK HUDSON and these 'guys' had lots of cars in their TV shows.
I was born in the late 60's and for whatever reason, the cars of the '60's and early 70's...i find a fascination associated that time period.
thanks

Since MeTV is a local channel it will only be available in the Chicago area. I know MeTV is in Milwaukee too (since Weigel owns a few stations there) but it wont be nationwide.

Me Too is not available on Dish Network in Chicago, or at least it wasn't the last time I checked.

If you have one of the OTA-compatible ViP receivers, you could always get an antenna and receive it on 26.3, I think it is.

WCIU has a bunch of good stations, like

METV
and METOO

THere is also,

This
and
That!

Allthought That is just a slate right now.


Im surprised that METV, METOO and This is not picked up. Great programming! I also hear that RTN is trying to make a presence in Chicago. I could only imagin Spengoolies responce to that!

ME TV is available for Chicago local subscribers without an antenna (channel 8505 or 23). Me Too and This TV (old movies) are only available via an antenna. And coming soon... That TV! (I'm guessing it's a second old movie channel.)

There are a lot of fun shows not found on cable that I hadn't seen for awhile.... Lost In Space, Petticoat Junction, Love American Style etc...
