    Direct, \NFL pack

    I believe local blackout rules still apply. The only way you can see part of the game is on the red zone channel. If I am wrong someone else can correct me.

    Locals Problem In Chicago

    I live in the Chicago area too and have not had these problems. While I ocassionaly have picture breakup, audio problems, etc. they are not 5 to 15 times an hour. And I never have the switching between channel problems. I would call DTV.
