because it concerns OTA channels?

not necessarily down the road from glendive in ekalaka they get their abc from rapid city, sd. until recently the abc there (kota) had metv and thistv as subchannels. Mid rivers cable carried the metv but not thistv in the mid river markets that havent been upgraded to full digital they do not...

i was referring to the fact you said that "Satellites do carry subchannels only if they are a full power and on the. 1" my point was that the reason directv carries it is because again its a .1, full power, and they reached an agreement

that has already been established previously. i dont know why you need to repeat yourself not all subchannels are carried on cable cable will carry them but the owner of the station that has it on their subchannel has to reach an agreement. that is why you will see some subchannels not on...

the .1 is considered the primary channel like in my market we have 2 stations KXGN 5.1 is the primary channel and carries CBS KXGN 5.2 is the subchannel and carries NBC subchannels are considered -2 and on. so a station that is just a .1 would be one with no subchannels.

why so much hostility? i was just confirming why your metv affiliate is on directv. it is a .1 it is full powered station according to the fcc the owner of the station reached an agreement with the provider to carry it

A .1 is not a subchannel. and since you claim that is full power then of course it would get must carry as long as they reach an agreement

the mlb network games are hit and miss. it is just random as to which game you will get. in some cases they try to give you the game that is the same league as the market that you are in. i also got the white sox/blue jays game the other day. seattle claims montana so i just assumed it was due...

its possible that the owner of the station that carries comet did not ask for carriage whereas the owner of the station that carries escape did

but the previous sentence i clearly stated a must carry means if it asks for carriage on a cable or satellite company the provider has to carry it as along as they reach an agreement on compensation guess you neglected to read that part before making your incorrect response

i still do in the vehicle. but at home i mainly listen to the audio streams on directv or the internet. my market is very minimal at best for commercial radio 5 stations total 2 religious (1 on am 1 on fm) 1 Yellowstone public radio low powered translator 2 commercial stations (owned by same...

here is some info from wikipedia on must carry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Must-carry#United_States

andy_horton a must carry means if it asks for carriage on a cable or satellite company the provider has to carry it as along as they reach an agreement on compensation. all full powered .1 stations qualify for must carry regardless of programming. now there may be situatinos where a .1 is not...

By the way for the person asking about satellite I have Directv and am grandfathered with networks. I legally qualify for ABC & FOX and CW and PBS I am grandfathered in on NBC and CBS. Before 2009 NBC was an hour at night on KXGN. Yes KXGN did carry both CBS and NBC up to 2009. We also had a low...
