    Erie PA Local Channels

    The CW Erie is listed as a substation as the CBS station. I never realized that before...I'm just happy to have all four main stations. I won't complain.

    Erie PA Local Channels

    I noticed last night that Directv was now offering all of the local Erie channels, anyone have word on what finally broke between them and Lilly Broadcasting?

    They won't grant you your distant networks but won't come to terms so Directv can broadcast their channels, it all makes perfect sense to me. Have you ever chatted with Lilly and found out why they won't come to an agreement?

    Sadly, I don't watch much on CBS or NBC. I just prefer the nightly news crew on the Erie NBC station...

    If directv wouldn't have granted our distant request for the two. We would have been in the same boat. I'm going to assume this is a money dispute. Really end of the day, networks make their money on advertising and number of people watching their shows. I wonder if there is a contact email for...

    Erie PA Locals

    Yes, they were added in October before October, I lived in "Ludlow PA" which received the Buffalo locals. We moved back to our house because of "work" in October. Actually, we re-upped our contract for a HD DVR in our living room... I added the "distant" networks after the Erie channels came on.

    Erie PA Locals

    We currently have NY-City NBC and CBS, but it's just not the same as having the "locals" from Erie. Our local cable company offers the ABC out of Buffalo along with the ABC out of Erie but no other neighboring channels. Dish offers all of the locals from Erie...hopefully they'll get this...

    Any idea what the blocking is about? I live away from Erie but they're our closest local channels. I miss my news...

    I was wondering if anyone was aware of the contract standing for NBC and CBS between Directv and the channels in the market. We receive FOX and ABC currently from Erie PA.

    A problem with my service...

    Service call To be honest, I'm not crawling up on my roof. I have a service call after work tonight with Directv. I have to give them credit for that at least, they get their techs to you fast.

    A problem with my service...

    It is something besides the receiver...thank you. I'm embarrassed, I didn't think of this before you mentioned it. Thank you so much.

    A problem with my service...

    We had some heavy rain last night, and some wind. But nothing that lasted a real long time, maybe 30 minutes. The receiver worked until we went to bed after the bad weather. The weather was at like 6 pm. We've done a red button reset. It hasn't worked. We've called service. They want to send...

    A problem with my service...

    I have a question, and I'm posting this from work...so I have limited knowledge of my equipment. I believe I have a slimline5 with three receivers. A standard receiver, an HD DVR and a HD receiver with over the air antenna hook-up. At about 9:30 am today, the HD receiver with OTA just...

    A question on D11 receiver

    I don't mean to be rude, but I get so frustrated with the customer service you get over phones. "Justin" the second guy I spoke with tonight, just kept saying "umm...hold on another minute, and then sent a reauthorization and then said, well, we'll have to schedule a tech to come out." You...

    A question on D11 receiver

    you rock! Seriously, you are awesome. I've been on the phone with D* tech support twice today. The first guy had me so angry I wanted to scream. He kept telling me I had to get a new HD receiver, and he was going to be nice and only charge me $99 for it and it would only add one year to my...

    A question on D11 receiver

    Sorry I lied, and I don't know if this is normal or not, but all three of my receivers say a different thing under satellite for what type of satellite we have. I'm pretty sure it's the 5 lnb multidish.

    A question on D11 receiver

    My locals changed from national feed to a local feed. I use to be on the New York City feeds, now I'm on the Buffalo new york feed. I have a one dish multi dish 5 lnb. I don't know if this will make a difference or not, but on my two hd receivers they both say, 5lnb multi-sat dish and on my...

    A question on D11 receiver

    Changed the address with Directv, and my locals are fine on both the HD and my HDDVR receiver, it's just the standard D11-100 that will not show the channels below 51. Channel 51 is a local by the way.

    A question on D11 receiver

    My wife and I recently moved into a new house due to a job promotion. This is a company house and already has equipment installed. I took my receivers with me, and hooked everything up. Everything is fine, except when I try to watch locals on my standard def, D-11 receiver. I don't receiver...

    I finally heard back from emailing Dish CEO

    My guess is due to the signal is weaker to my locals than all other channels. My locals' strength on average is about 20 lower than the rest of the channels... I don't know though, it might just be that's what my wife and I are watching in the bedroom at the time.

    I finally heard back from emailing Dish CEO

    It is a 622. The good news, as long as I don't want to watch local channels - I'm okay. The problem is, usually that's what we're watching in the evenings.
