    AT&T exploring Deal to sell off DIRECTV.

    All I care about is if the next buyer changes their system back to where “moving” is possible.

    Different local channels & sports channels question

    Your local RSNs will vary by team in some areas you are entitled to a team that isn’t on a local RSN so you have to subscribe to Sports Pack to get that team. One example Clay County, NC in Atlanta DMA gets Cincinnati Reds games but you must subscribe to Sports Pack to get FSN Cincinnati to...

    “Moving” new strategy or tips?

    I already used a movers deal when I moved to Georgia. I just want to change the service address to a bigger market like I have in the 3 other places that I’ve lived in.

    “Moving” new strategy or tips?

    So I have been a customer of Dish from 2005 to 2007 and Directv ever since. The entire time I’ve been a subscriber I had successfully “moved” to nearby areas near whatever Air Force Base I have been stationed at with no issues. Well on my last real move this past January, I had lived in Dayton...

    Moved, asked for 4K receiver didn’t get it. Worth fighting?

    I didn’t move to DC. I moved from Dayton, Ohio to Warner Robins, Georgia. I know from being stationed in Biloxi years ago that we got the DC CW affiliate that is used for those that can’t get a local CW station. Our CW on Directv shows up on Channel 65 for Macon (It’s really 13.2 here) but I get...

    Moved, asked for 4K receiver didn’t get it. Worth fighting?

    So the Air Force moved me from Ohio to Georgia. My receivers were 6 years old (HR44 Genie and 3 clients) so I ask for new receivers and a 4K receiver, the CSR woman tells me “Yes we can do that”. The installer comes over yesterday and asks if I had my HR44, I said “yes but why would I need it...

    Genie HR44 receiver no longer recognizing AM21

    Sorry about not replying for a while. The OTA channels are still on my guide but the signal no longer comes in for any OTA station. It’s definitely not the antenna since I tested it and bought a new antenna on top of it. I also live right outside the city of Dayton and about 15 miles from the...

    Genie HR44 receiver no longer recognizing AM21

    Within the last 2 weeks my HR44 Genie stopped recognizing my AM21 Tuner. First I thought it was my antenna, so I bought a new Mohu Leaf Antenna, it wasn't the antenna. Then I bought a new USB cable, not that either. I then noticed that the Antenna setup is no longer in options and the receiver...

    Wheeling/Steubenville Locals

    Right now my CBS affiliate in Columbus WBNS is off of DIRECTV due to another contract dispute. I'm considering "moving" before Sunday. Are all locals in HD or are some in Stretch-O-Vision like our NBC affiliate in Biloxi was due to not enough bandwidth?

    AM21 support has ended.

    Another thing is can you put more than 2 markets on an AM21? The only market I can find on the TPN Map spreadsheet that has more than 2 subchannels on channels 18 and 41 is Los Angeles.

    AM21 support has ended.

    Thanks but Seattle's KIRO and KJZOs physical channels (39 and 25) don't mirror WHIO and WKEF (41 and 18) respectively. They need to be the same physical channels for me to pick those subchannels up. If WKEF would have just displaced the old fart movie channel GetTV on 22.2 for Antenna TV instead...

    AM21 support has ended.

    Just great!! I'm deployed overseas right now and I get home sometime in April. My market Dayton just added 5 subchannels although I only care about one Antenna TV. (The rest are Crime, Escape, American Sports, and Comet) I was hoping Directv would update the database quicker. Now I have to...

    Directv won't install due to trees. Help.

    So they gave a second opinion and said no. I got Time Warner Cable and my wife and I HATE it! I am getting permission from Housing Maintenance to have the dish put more up front of the house but 119 is still iffy. What's the chance that they will install a 3 lnb telling them how in the know I am...

    Directv won't install due to trees. Help.

    Thanks guys! I ordered a second opinion yesterday for Directv. I also downloaded the SAToolz for D* and E* and took some pics with it outside on the side of the house and in the backyard to show the best positions I could find to get the sats. I'm 6 foot tall and I tried going on a knee to get...

    Directv won't install due to trees. Help.

    I moved to Wright-Patterson AFB near Dayton, Ohio and after finally getting the dig permit to put a pole next to my base house, the Directv installer saw the tree branches behind my backyard from the house behind and above me (I live on the bottom end of a hill) and said "Oh no, I won't be able...

    How many people here are "moved"? Where are you and what market did you "move" to?

    I'm in the Air Force, I currently live in Biloxi, MS but "moved" to Fairhope, AL (Mobile/Pensacola DMA) to get Tampa Bay Rays and Miami Marlins games and to dodge paying a satellite tax. I easily get all 3 stations on antenna indoors. Before I moved there. I lived in Cocoa Beach, FL (Orlando...

    Trasnponder Signal Strength

    With the Sinclair dispute possibly coming to a head on Friday, I am looking at moving my "moved" address in Mobile area which could lose 4 stations to Columbus, Mississippi area which also gets me Reds and Cardinals games on top of the Braves games. I did a look at my transponder signals and saw...

    DIRECTV to Offer FREE MLB Extra Innings!

    With the deal starting 1 March, I'm hoping this doesn't mean that Spring Training games are no longer in the clear on Sports Pack. Teams blackout their vintage game footage on Sports Pack so this wouldn't surprise me.

    LA locals question

    Thanks! I figured that, I just wanted to make sure that he would still get locals albeit three hours delayed, with the exception of WNBC. He lives in an apartment I'm going to help with him get an antenna for OTA local news for here. I hate locally uninformed people! :)

    LA locals question

    A friend of mine who just moved here from another base is sick of the locals here in Biloxi. He's from Orange County, CA and he is looking at "moving" his address to get Angels, Lakers, and Ducks (Whenever lockout ends) games. Are the Big 4 LA locals used for DNS in the 390s range in the clear...

    Combining then splitting Cable signal to living room

    Thanks guys. If I call the cable company to get Basic Cable and they see the Satellite setup, does this mean they have to run new coax to the living room (room wanting the extra local channels)? I couldn't use an A/B switch could I?
