    Living in a borderline zip code with choices for locals

    For me, I live in Centralia, WA Lewis County which is part of the Seattle DMA. The county south to us is Cowlitz County (Portland Market) which if you lived in the southern part of Seattle, you can choose between Seattle and Portland. On cable, Comcast provides 2 ABC (KOMO 4 and KATU 2), 2 FOX...

    Living in a borderline zip code with choices for locals

    Isn't it why they call them Sigificant viewing locals? That's the real beauty of DirecTV's local channels choosing. There are other locations in Tracy that come into play too, the town of Mountain House (American Idol's Thia Megias place), Byron and Banta. Banta technically is a sub-town of...

    Living in a borderline zip code with choices for locals

    Another county that's split is Solano County, the eastern portion (Cordelia, Fairfield, Suisun City, Vacaville, Rio Vista) gets the Sacramento stations but the western portions (Vallejo/Benecia) get the SF Bay area stations, the cable stations there especially in the eastern portion get 2 CBS...

    Living in a borderline zip code with choices for locals

    OK, I really needed to know this since my sister is on the South corner of Tracy, CA and since she chose the SF/Oak/SJ market I would often visit her house. Plus since she commutes from tracy to the Bay area, she needs to get the traffic reports from the SF Bay area and not Sacramento. My...

    Living in a borderline zip code with choices for locals

    I see, she basically doesn't have any choice but to have the #20 market as her locals. But technically her zip isn't 95304, it's 95377. My parents live in 95304. She gets the locals from San Francisco while my parents get the Sacramento locals because of the pull down menu of where you want to...

    Living in a borderline zip code with choices for locals

    My sister who lives in a borderline town that is not too far away from the SF Bay Area Market but gets stations from Sacramento/Stockton/Modesto. Her zip is 95304. Though I went over to Costco and the person who told me that the Local Channels are by the billing address. I would like to ask, if...

    KCOP My Network TV Los Angeles DMA

    The only show KCOP carries thats still good from it's days that KTTV had at 12 PM before they put the news on there, I Love Lucy 2 hrs from 12-2 PM weekdays. KTTV still has Lucy on Weekends as filler programming.

    KCOP My Network TV Los Angeles DMA

    Ummm, KCOP carries games of the LA Angels of Anaheim. They have since 2006. KCAL OTOH carries the Dodgers when they traded with the halos in 2006. Anyway's KCOP used to be great when I watched it via ivi.tv before that shut down due to a court order.

    Dish & NY Sports

    They only have a minority stake in Echostar, they don't own it, my apologies for the eroor I made.

    Dish & NY Sports

    That would be Goldman Sachs. Even though that they do own a 40% stake in YES, they have been trying to get rid of their stake which has been going on since '09. But then again, being that Goldman Sachs carries Dish's Echostar, it probably might willing to get YES, but YES only is on Dish when...

    New Sports Regional for LA

    That's actually right, I really do think that switching was a great idea, I never had Dish, but from the very beginning I had D* when I got them from local cable. It wasn't too bad and it is great because at least the way they credit their viewers due to channel disputes with free local distants...

    New Sports Regional for LA

    Charlie should just have Dish be sold out by AT&T and stop playing cheap with how he handles his company. He already f-ed up the NYC market with no YES Yankee Network, MSG and MLB Network. If at all possible, Charlie should just throw in the towel and let his minions get fired and let AT&T...

    sports in hd

    I believe that Ranger OTA games had moved in DFW from KDFI (MNT 27) to CBS Indie KTXA (TV21) as of 2010. The games however are produced by FSN in DFW.

    Permanent HD for RSNs?

    It's just sad to see that E* is completely doing the half monty when it comes to RSN's. I actually think that Charlie no offense is very incompetent because clearly he is an when it comes to sports. He already admitted it. I think also he is treating many of his customers (including my sister...

    No more HD Distant Networks?

    My sister currently has DISH and she has the DNS for the SF Bay Area (ABC, CBS, FOX, NBC) but she also had the CHI and LA locals and last time she said that the guide was still there. I was just wondering since they are pulled, will her refund be prorated for the life of the year long contract...
