Just in time for the pro bowl and the Olympics! And, of course, the Súper bowl.

Thanks for the announcement Scott, if you hadn't done it I would never had known as I already removed the station from my favorites list so the nag bar wouldn't bug me!

 

[man00]

Which will be the next one?

Hope new agreement didn't affect Primetime Anytime commercial skip.

Me to also. Guess we will find out tomorrow.

 

[dweber]

So now I can delete my timers to OTA WBNS 10.1 for Good Sam, CSI Vegas, FBI: Most Wanted, FBI International, FBI, NCIS Hawaii, NCIS, Bob Hearts Abishola, Seal Team, NCIS Los Angeles, The Equalizer, Blue Bloods, Magnum PI, Swat, The Neighborhood, Bull, Ghosts, United States of Al, and Young Sheldon. I watch a lot of CBS programs.
But now PTAT will record the shows.

Since WBNS in Columbus was CBS I will need to wait 8 days to see whether Autohop still works.

After four months it's about damn time. Tegna should be ashamed. Not sure about dish, but finally this hell is OVAH! Now we can turn our attention to things of far more import like who brings home some gold or the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Thank you to Canada's CTV for backing me up during the hell on Sunday Nights. Congress, start looking into rewriting the Retrans rules, puh-leeze!

Just in time for the pro bowl

So, you're that guy.

For the Phoenix market, it was NBC which isn't usually a huge loss, but it's nice to have the Winter Olympics available. Watching the few things I cared about on OTA was adequate but the convenience of PTAT is appreciated.

 

[chuckster_dude]

Damn, there goes the $5 discount I was getting because of losing our local NBC station. But I got a free OTA antenna out of it that worked pretty well.

 

[NYDutch]

For our next three moves, we'll be in the Orlando, Tampa, and Ft Myers, Florida DMA's. NBC and CBS were off in both Tampa and Ft Myers, but CBS is still off in Ft Myers due to another dispute that's apparently gone on since February 2021. The Tampa DMA spot beams for both eastern and western arcs cover our campground near Ochopee in the Ft Myers DMA though, so we'll just stay on that one while we're there. The campground is about 75 air miles from Ft Myers, so I don't know if OTA will work or not.

Glad to have them back. Thank you Dish. At least it did go on as long as the Fisher contract, I think in 2009.
