    MLB to take action to reduce TV blackouts

    I'm so sick of MLB and their Blackouts. I live in the Indians and Pirates territory (Zip 16727) and I for the life of me don't understand why the Mets/Phillies were blacked out on Wednesday on ESPN2 and now today the Cubs/Phillies is blacked out on TBS. I'm trying my best not to swear but this...

    Blackout Question for the Upcoming MLB season

    I'm going to bet you'll get the Indians games this year if you're receiving STO now. I checked my Zip on D* website which now has the Indians listed for my Zip and the STO site says the Indians games will be broadcast in the entire Indians territory on Directv and Dish.

    They are part of the RTN network. The local affliate is owned by Granite Broadcasting who also own the local ABC affiliate. Don't remember the URL but it appears that the RTN network is planning a pretty impressive expansion this year, mostly in HD.

    Blackout Question for the Upcoming MLB season

    WNGS is a lower power station located half-way between Bradford PA and Buffalo NY with their main directional pattern aimed at Buffalo, so antenna not an option. I realize that D* doesn't control the blackouts, I'm very familiar with blackouts. This is just the first season that I'll be able...

    Zip Code Confirmation

    I think the zip code confirmation you're referring to maybe to determine what equipment is needed. Along time ago when they were rolling out the locals some locals could be picked up with the single LNB but most required an equipment upgrade (which is now pretty much the standard equipment...

    R15 Question

    Woke up this AM (5:00) and noticed my R15's light ring was going around in circles and the unit wouldn't respond to the remote or front panel. Did red button reset and then 15 second unplug reset, no change. Was it processing an update? Hard drive dying? Hard drive in loop, needs...
