    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 7/16/2025

    Thanks, KyL416, no one here knows about this deal yet.... This conversion is still a big mess-- WDFL signal barely goes out 15 miles so this is not a serious OTA play... In fact, it's going to super confuse antenna viewers b/c the full-power strong signal will be on 7.2, not 18.1... but it...

    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 7/16/2025

    Thanks, Tom, it'll be interesting to see what DTV does because in order for these changes to take place alot of moving pieces have to come together. The ATSC 3.0 Next Gen TV transmitters for WSVN and WPLG are being shut down one week earlier (7-28-25) in order for WSVN to broadcast ABC in HD on...

    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 7/16/2025

    Thanks, KyL416... Good to know WPLG-10 will be protected after August 4th.... I guess we'll find out in July in this forum where ABC will be placed when DTV begins testing the new signal.

    DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 7/16/2025

    Question for KyL416: big mess coming up in Miami... what do you think DTV will do with the new ABC affiliate in Miami on August 4th when it moves to the FOX affiliate's sub-channel 7.2 ? The current ABC affiliate WPLG becomes an independent and will stay on Channel 10... so, does DTV insert...

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    Thanks on the work-around options for the FOX 4K events... I did not think of going to their App..... The White Sox 4K games are a loss I guess, although one of the games this week is on Ch. 106 so we get it on Stream... Sort of ironic given this Sunday's game was lost since it was on 107.

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    Thanks, did not know..... I do see a PR issue when higher profile events, like some simultaneous World Cup games get the overflow channels 107 and 108. But yeah, I know that's way in the future.

    Directv stream 4k live channels added

    This past weekend there were live 4K sports on DTV Satellite chs. 107 & 108.... but DTV Stream did not get them because the 4K channels on Stream stop at Channel 106. Is this a technical glitch that the Stream engineers need to fix ?

    DISH Hacked - Websites are BACK ONLINE!

    Same here ! Just got an e-mail saying that my account is past due and to pay the amount due "to restore your service." I've been on auto-pay since 2008 and have had no paper bills since then. Auto-payment was due today 3-8-23; no debit from my bank account has been taken. The e-mail has a...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    It appears that DirecTV was the main, if not the only, source for TV news and entertainment for the Presidential Palace and for the government buildings, in addition to serving most of the population basically for free. El Nuevo Herald has been reporting that they are now basically disconnected...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    Source: El Nuevo Herald (Miami, Florida) has been writing extensively on this issue this week--- www.elnuevoherald.com. They explain how the government forced DTV to subsidize their service (for pennies) in order to keep the population indoors occupied. The reason given by DTV in the press...

    DirecTV Latin America forced to walk away from its Venezuela uplink facility

    Streaming ? Are you kidding ? In Venezuela most homes are lucky if they have electricity for more than a couple of hours a day .... and running water. Millions have fled to neighboring countries as refugees. Satellite TV was government price-capped at about 50 cents per month. DTV was...
