    Erie, PA NBC, CBS contract with DTV (Agreement Reached)

    They make their station near impossible to pick up with an ota. Your average person is not want to get out on their roof and install an antenna. And even if they do that isn't free. If they had a legit signal you'd have a point. Their ploy is to get more money through cable and sat subs. I guess...

    Erie, PA NBC, CBS contract with DTV (Agreement Reached)

    Yeah that seems about right. I pick up a station 9.1 9.2 and 9.3 and I don't even know where it's out of. But I've never been able to pick up NBC. Back when I didn't have dtv I tried a few different indoor antennas and none of them worked.

    Erie, PA NBC, CBS contract with DTV (Agreement Reached)

    Well I'm watching the olympics tonight here in Erie and a crawl comes across the screen saying that if an agreement isn't reached between the NBC affiliate which also happens to own the CBS affiliate in my town then the stations will be dropped. OK so I'm figuring they'll be dropped in the next...

    Could this be signs of a bad install

    I will. Thanks for the help.

    Could this be signs of a bad install

    You might be right. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt and wait till mid summer to get an overall judgment. If by 6 months I'm still having these issue I'll probably make a call. I don't know if this setup just inherently "bugier" than the Dish setup. There are certain areas where...

    Just tried the Exit button when watching live tv then rewinding and it didn't do anything.

    Could this be signs of a bad install

    Got Direct installed about 2 months ago. The guys did a roof install as I had Dish up there previously. The guys seemed like they'd rather just set it up in the yard, but with kids around all the time and basketballs flying around I wanted it out of the way. So it went on the roof. The guy threw...

    Buffalo Sabres games in Erie

    Well thats a drawback I guess. Being a big Indians fan I assumed sto would be included in the choice package. I guess when the season rolls around in a couple months I'll have to be upping to the xtra.

    Buffalo Sabres games in Erie

    Thanks for quick reply Iceberg, you are the man when it comes to answering this stuff. I had figured the games were in HD, but when I did that zip code search it sort of scared the crap out of me because there is no mention of HD for msg just the other two. And I am specifically switching to...

    Buffalo Sabres games in Erie

    Had to resurrect this 2 year old thread because for some reason I cannot find a good answer with about 2 hours worth of google search. My situation is that I am in Erie Pa. I would like to know if it is possible to watch the Sabres in HD in Erie. When I go to the Directv site and punch in my zip...

    722 is crashing every time I attempt to scan for locals

    Thanks for the response Tony. This seems strange but tonight I have a different problem. It allowed me to scan locals. It came up with 8 total. I deleted 5 that I did not care about. So that left me with three that I could view. I was getting signal strengths in the mid to high 70's for all of...

    722 is crashing every time I attempt to scan for locals

    I'm not sure what the deal is here. I've unplugged receiver and tried the hard reboot. Yet every time I try to scan for locals it crashes the receiver. Any one else go through this issue?

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    Maybe the new owner will have some sort of solution to the problem. I mean the guy is a self made billionaire. My guess is that Dish doesn't want to open the wallet at all on this thing. I would guess with the subscriber loss it might be hurting them more than helping them.

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    I "moved". I mean how rediculous is it that you pay $80 for a couple months of hockey and you cannot even watch your local team. They are blacking out opponents feed on account of a channel that they DO NOT offer. That is mind numbing. The day Dish cracks down on "moving" is the day I jump ship...

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    On a different note, it's a little rediculous that CI is priced at the same level on Dish and Direct. Tonight I had 2 choices of HD hockey to watch on CI. Edmonton/Colorado and the Kings/Ducks. Those are some great matchups. Watching Teemu Selanne hold his own out there at the age of 40 is...

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    The only thing I can think of is that there is a 100 mile radius that I fall under for the Sabres and not the Pens. That is the only explanation I have for being unlocked on the opposing teams rsn for the upcoming Pens/Carolina game.

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    I'm lost here. The Pens/Canes game is showing unlocked for Pitt and Carolina feeds on CI. Is that because that is an away game?

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    I am also in the Penguins territory, but they are not blacked out on CI. Both on the Pitt feed and the opposing teams feed. Check that wrong on my part. Pens-Sharks tonight was on Versus and Fox Pitt. So you're telling me away Sabres games will be available. Thats good news. At least I won't...

    Cannot watch Buffalo Sabres at all

    I live in Erie, PA which is technically in the Sabres market. I subscribed to the Center Ice last night figuring I would probably be able to watch the Sabres on the opposing teams feed. Nope. All blacked out. Now how can they black it out when there is no possible way of watching the Sabres on...

    Local channels from different city!

    No offense, but I gotta say you are probably the worst "mover" I've ever seen. Take Iceberg's cue...do a search, get a plan, then do the chat. But as others have said it might be too late as your account could be flagged now.

    TurboHD Silver here, NHL network on 403 in on. It's not a preview either because I made sure to check 102. Good news.
