    Seeking FTA Broadcast Schedule

    ADVERTS 1
    I am wondering if there is a programing directory (TV Guide) for FTA satellites.

    "The List" is great to a point, but how do you define what is being broadcast and is free as versus Dishnetwork or Direct TV programing?

    Thanks

    titantv.com you can customize a list. I started with my local OTA and then added a few FTA channels like PBS, Ohio News, Retro TV, ABCNewsNow, BYU etc

    Ice,

    Thanks! I was digging in my brain just a little while ago for that resource and couldn't remember it, all I could think of was Zap2it.

    Now I should try to remember TitanTV as well. Thanks for the refresher!

    Are there any others that we could post here?

    zap2it would work too but its not as easy to add channels.

    Titan TV seems to work the best and its customizable depending on which channels you want and what order to put them in. The only drawback I noticed is some channels you can't move to where you want

    example...
    I have my locals in there at their legit spots (2,4,5,9,11,23,29,41,45) and then I put the FTA channels starting at 100. The exceptions are the networks on G16 as I can put them as what their channel is (ThisTV is 17, ABC is 20, Fox is 24, CW is 30 and NBC 14).....the issue is when you add a channel that might be a subchannel. It logs as what the channel is. So when we found a WSTV affiliate (KFLA 8.2) even if I changed the channel number to say 111 it still showed as 8.2 in the list.

    The old analog channels I could put them how I wanted. I used their legit number and had my locals elsewhere

    when you add the channel blank out the sub carriers 12 3
    then in the pull down choose Satellite and add the number you want at the top. save

    works on the green edit page too. all stations green hi -lighted
