    Finally, DISH has added our local full-power CBS station KBTX! For years the Bryan-College Station has been forced to view Waco CBS station KWTX instead of the CBS affiliate right down the street. After several years of waiting, thanks DISH! Congrats to everyone at KBTX and local DISH...

    KBTX (CBS Bryan/College Station, TX) is finally a step closer to being offered by DISH as the EPG info was uplinked today for their CBS and CW digital feeds. KBTX is one of a few and perhaps the only full-powered network affiliate DISH had refused to carry when financial terms were not a...

    Terk TV44 work with vip622?

    Blaze... having that dedicated coax run is what I had thought too. With only one coax running to the 622, it is that same coax that carries the diplexed TV2 SD signal to the other television.

    Terk TV44 work with vip622?

    KBTX (CBS) Not on Waco/Bryan, TX Locals?

    Sorry for not including some additional facts about KBTX in the original post. KBTX and KWTX are both owned by Gray Communications, a company with stations across the country in a variety of markets. They are two TOTALLY seperate stations/affilates. It's NOT one of those situations where...

    KBTX (CBS) Not on Waco/Bryan, TX Locals?

    I continue to send emails to E* customer service to find out why my local CBS affiliate KBTX is not on my locals. E* offers me KWTX which is located in Waco, Texas while KBTX is located literally 7 miles from my house in College Station, Texas. E* has a different "form" answer each time. KBTX...
