    NBA League Pass Issue

    Do you subscribe to the RSN Sports Pack package? It may be that if you don't subscribe to the sports pack package, FSN New Orleans Pelican live feeds are blacked out. Where I live (East Tennessee), I am in markets that are claimed by both the Atlanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds. When I...

    AT&T Weighs In On Net Neutrality

    CenturyLink customer here. Is Comcast still throttling down speeds during congested periods? Are they capping data? I get 10 megs here in East Tennessee, which is plenty fast enough to stream high definition content to my Roku or tablet. If Comcast didn't throttle down or cap data and didn't...

    Where the #%#$%#% is MSNBC HD, DirecTV?

    The point that everyone is missing is that probably there was a reason why NBC Universal put the game on MSNBC instead of USA or CNBC. The reason -- NBC was trying to use this as leverage to get DirecTV and other carriers to add the full-time HD feed of MSNBC. Not saying that I agree with...

    FCC seeking to close programming access loophole

    Don't fall for the old Comcrap diversion argument. They always throw out the Sunday Ticket issue and try to equate that as rationale for witholding Comcrap Philly. They have tried this argument for years. Two entirely different birds here, as some have pointed out. Jimbo and others are...

    WEMT Tri Cities

    I called WCYB directly tonight about this issue. Apparently, there was a carriage agreement reached today, so SD feeds will not be lost as threatened by WCYB. The individual that I spoke to did not know if a carriage agreement had been reached for HD feeds, so that is unknown at this time...

    WEMT Tri Cities

    I haven't heard anything about this. This had better NOT happen. You can't even get HD signals in the Tri-Cities, and now, this may happen? I will be one unhappy person if this doesn't get worked out. And, they better work out some type of carriage issue for HD as well.

    Weather Channel Local Content Feedback

    As with others, adjust the speed of the screens to allow for more reading time, and also add local weather warning to the screen when available. The other suggestion that I would have is to make sure that the screen with the forcasts for surrounding cities have the cities that are closest to...

    NFL Sunday Ticket question

    Great to see other Browns fans on this site!!! Living in eastern Tennessee, ST is a godsend! And to make it better, the wife is hooked on it now and she won't let me get rid of it! :) And how 'bout that Tribe! Hopefully, there's another World Series appearance in our near future, and we...

    Is SportsTime Ohio now part of the Sports Pack?

    We have been totally blacked out of all STO programming here in Tennessee. No spring training feeds of STO games have been shown in our area, and no other programming has been shown either. This is entirely new for us today, so that was why I was asking about a carriage agreement. I knew that...

    Is SportsTime Ohio now part of the Sports Pack?

    I was flipping through the sports channels this afternoon and STO is showing all programming here in Tennessee. Does this mean that STO and DirecTV have finally reached an agreement regarding full-time carriage? Will this mean that STO's Tribe exhibition game feeds will be shown the rest of...

    With the way that the Flyers are playing this year, are you sure that you want to make this expenditure? ;)

    DTV DSL $60 OFF Promotion

    I just signed up for DSL through Sprint/Embarq last month. When I signed up for DSL, I called D* about this promotion directly. The CSR was initially not aware of the program, but I gave him the internet address for the page that explained the program. He looked up the site, verified that...

    Senate Panel Calls Hearing on DirecTV's Sunday Ticket Package

    Uh, didn't D*, E* and the cable networks have a chance to bid on the exclusivity package for NFL Sunday Ticket and D* was the winner? Seems like a bunch of whiners to me. And, D* doesn't have a chance to bid a reasonable price to get carriage for Comcrap Philly. Talk about a monopoly --...

    What channel shows if I've already paid for my NFL Sunday Ticket?

    Somewhere in the 210-220 range; thinking possibly 215 (But not for sure because I am at work and cannot check).
