    It's been awhile since I've had a local go dark on DTV. Will ABC on-demand disappear for me too? What about on the ESPN app...will games shown on ABC be available?

    AGREEMENT REACHED....Possible Sinclair Locals Dispute 3/1/13

    I get Sinclair owned WSYX ABC 6 out of Columbus OH as my local ABC network. Last week Directv replaced it with WABC out of New York. I thought this was very strange in doing that before the March 1 deadline. I assume it has to do with Sinclair.

    Directv contract with Fox networks coming up...AGREEMENT REACHED

    As long as this doesn't affect the Big Ten Network I could care less. If it does, then I blame Directv because they seem to be the ones apparently not willing to give a little, by not continuing to transmit even though NewsCorp says they can. When it gets to baseball season that is going to be...

    Where the #$^#^#$^% is TruTV HD???

    There may be hope for all games in HD I read this late last night at NCAA Tournament on TruTV HD Channels by Provider | HD Sports Guide. Look at comment #4. It appears that DTV will be having a mix channel for the ncaa tourney. It says all four games in HD. It is not clear if it means just...

    They are telling him it will be almost the end of January before they can get a tech there to resolve picture quality problem. Not the first time he has one had this specific problrem or had wait almost a month to get a service call.

    Does DTV still have a special customer retention phone number?

    I have a friend who is having problems with his service and standard customer service is just ticking him off more. If he can't resolve it tomorrow he's leaving DTV after 15 years.

    Distant Networks In HD

    DNS in HD You do have to sub to these channels and you only get East or West. Not both like SD. Unless you specifically ask to have them you don't get them. But they have been available for the three years i have had DTV. Another interesting item, DTV added the NY DNS stations as my...

    Satellite Viewers Act fails

    Is Directv losing Distant Networks too? I live in the Marietta OH/Parkersburg WV market, one of the smallest. I struggle just to get NBC off of antenna and this market is served only by WTAP with NBC/FOX/MY. I would be completely without CBS and ABC! If I don't get WABC and WCBS I'm screwed.

    Dish Urges Senate to Modernize Satellite Legislation

    As someone living in one of those 29 unserved areas, Marietta (OH) - Parkersburg (WV), this is very exciting news. I have long argued that "nearby" regional networks should be made available to unserved markets. This dma only has an NBC affiliate, so it would be awesome to get the remaining...

    Unable to pre-order a DTVPAL DVR because I am a FORMER dish network customer.

    Are they going to confirm problem orders? I still haven't received an email confirmation. I would rather pull my fingernails out with pliers than call Dish support again!! I would really like for them to make the effort to contact me.

    Unable to pre-order a DTVPAL DVR because I am a FORMER dish network customer.

    I attempted to order on the DTVPAL website but when I submitted a message appeared stating that my name or address was listed as being a former Dish service customer and to call an 800 number. Called the number and the CSR didn't even know the product was available. After being put on hold...

    DIRECTV Remains Clear HD Leader with 130 HD Channels

    Wished I had slept in. Very "meh". Thought for sure they would pull some positive surprise. Instead, we actually got less than expected with a few of the RSNs being delayed. I guess Dish wins this little battle in the HD war. Maybe Direct can counter something positive by the end of...
