If you have a waiver, does it remain in effect forever or do you have to renew it?

If you live in a "White Area" and can't receive tv signals, BUT DIRECTV provides your locals, can you still get a Distant Network Signal IF the local station grants you a waiver?

Curious to see if anyone has attempted to secure free Sunday Ticket for the upcoming season, and what deal they were able to get.

I live in the Harrisburg/Lancaster/York, PA market. Several months ago, NBC Channel 4 from the Baltimore market, as well as a CW Channel 50 from the same market started to be mapped in to my program guide despite the fact that these channels are totally blacked out in our area. It actually...

The Comcast SportsNet sports networks are part of NBC Universal. Dish and DirecTV have never carried CSN-Philadelphia. Could Dish request arbitration as a vehicle to obtain CSN-Philadelphia?

Since it appears that CSN Philly will never come to Directv, I am considering purchasing a Slingbox so I can hook it up to a Comcast Cable box at my mother's place and get the Phillies games this summer. I noticed there are a few different Slingbox models. Does it matter which version I purchase?

Will the new year bring us the long sought after CSN Philly to Directv? I have been hoping for years and years and years. Despite winning FCC rulings, the channel is still not part of the lineup. I guess CSN can say they "offered" the channel, but there's no regulations/controls on the terms...

Is DIRECTV permitted to offer another ABC affiliate from a neighboring DMA, or are we out of luck if there is no agreement?

Harrisburg, PA ABC 27 in the same boat.

While talking with a DirecTV customer service rep today (and I landed Free Sunday Ticket for the season!), I mentioned my wish for CSN Philadelphia. I have mentioned it before in the past, and the response has always been "I will forward your request to my supervisor, etc." Today, the response...

CSN Philadelphia PLEASE!!!

Now that AT&T and DirecTV have officially joined, is there any prayer that CSN Philadelphia can FINALLY be brought to DirecTV? I didn't know if the new company would have more clout/ability to negotiate a deal to end the decades old saga. Philadelphia sports fans have suffered long enough!

With streaming growing seemingly by the day, does anyone believe we will one day soon be able to "order" over the air broadcast networks from distant cities? You can already read the newspaper from virtually any U.S. city online. I would like to be able to purchase distant network channels via...

When I use MLB.TV's "Blackout Locator" it gives me a list of 2 teams that I will be blocked from seeing. When I type in my zip code, it gives me a list of 4 teams that I will be blocked from seeing. It's all the difference in the world for me, because my team is one of the two that is caught...

Did anyone get the answer yet as to whether or not you get MLB.TV PREMIUM with a DirecTV MBL EI subscription? Also, is everyone SURE that they won't connect your EI and .TV subscriptions for blackout purposes. I keep doing the blackout locator link on my computer and it says my team won't be...

How do you get around the blackout with ROKU? Doesn't it pick up your zip code or IP address and black you out from the local team?

Is it safe to assume that when the 2015 baseball season opens in April that all satellite tv customers in PA will STILL be without CSN Philadelphia? I can't believe there is still no agreement after all this time. The only ones suffering are the fans that want to watch the games on television...

Yes, the FCC determines the respective DMAs for all homes, and thus the appropriate local channels. However, the FCC also says that it's ok to provide significantly viewed locals in certain areas. That's all I am asking for -- stations the FCC has identified as being significantly viewed in my...

The FCC has SV stations broken down by county. The stations I am seeking are on the SV list for my county. I would think DIRECTV would be able to distribute the SV stations using a zip code system.

It's my understanding that DIRECTV is permitted to add significantly viewed locals to subscribers' packages. I live in Central PA and my zip code places me in the Harrisburg/Lancaster DMA. Thus, I receive all the Harrisburg/Lancaster locals. Our location is right on the edge of the DMA, as...

Directv and Dish wouldn't agree to baseball style arbitration to resolve the Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia dispute. Fans are still in the dark...

My Genie receiver is stuck on a particular channel and won't respond to any commands. I have two other televisions with remotes, and they are functioning fine. I first thought it was a battery issue, but after trying to other batteries I had in the house and then going to the store for brand...

I was a long-time Dish subscriber before switching to DIRECTV last summer. One of the things I always enjoyed with the Dish Sports Pak was the ability to see the endings of Major League Baseball games whenever the games went past the 3 hour time allotted to them on the programming schedule...

In baseball arbitration, the arbitrator picks one or the other -- not a middle ground figure. Each side has to arrive at a final figure to give the arbitrator for consideration -- knowing that that they will either win or lose. Of course, in baseball arbitration cases the two sides often...

"Comcast SportsNet has offered to go to arbitration with both of the satellite services with the hope that they will sign on soon to give Phillies fans the opportunity to tune in regardless of their service provider." "When Comcast became a king of content as well as distribution by acquiring...
