    Lin Tv

    Does any D* 'insiders' here know if D* is close to an agreement with LIN? I have been waiting almost 2 years for them to add NBC HD here in Austin. Now that D* is starting to roll out CW-HD, that particular HD channel is also a LIN channel here in Austin, so I doubt we will get it until they...
