Agree there, I do enjoy the primary network HD, especially down here in Nags Head where the signal quality of the cable carrier is terrible and outages frequent.

Elway--part of the problem with their OTA has been the tower. When analog, it was further south near Kitty Hawk on a "short" stick. When they moved their city of license to reflect both the Outer Banks and a Hampton Roads city, they built a new tower up in Moyock. As you might recall, the tower...

Kind of. Been around about 5 years, originally licensed to Moyock, NC, the transmitter was in lower Currituck. They moved the HD tower to Moyock and I think the City of License now includes Chesapeake or Va Beach. According to the station manager, they are sending an HD signal up to the Direct...

A post on the vartv web site states Direct TV will be dropping WSKY-4 as an LIL channel for the Norfolk-Va Beach area effective Jan 1. Any idea why they would do this? WSKY is a great source of local sports, especially for Old Dominion Univ and Norfolk Tides AAA baseball. I also enjoy their...

WHRO-Norfolk Thanks for the response to the ION station. Makes sense. WHRO-15 in Norfolk said they would be up in December after D* makes some more upgrades. So one of the two local PBS's will be in HD by year end it seems!

One More Norfolk-VA Beach HD They are now up to 5 with the addition of WGNT-DT 27 (CW net). Still lacking WTVZ (33) which is My Network; I emailed WTVZ and said D* had not contacted them yet. Also missing the PBS stations (2 & 15) and the indie WSKY-4. I am curious why they are "showing" the...

Just switched from E* to D* (MLB EI the reason), but a few questions. I set up two receivers, one the standard box and the other the HDDVR. My local channels for the Outer Banks of NC are defined as the Norfolk-VA ones. On my HD DVR only, I show all of those as well as the Raleigh Durham...

Switched Today After 8 yrs with DISH, I had Direct TV hooked up today. Watching the Yankees on YES right now (which I never could have done on DISH), and they are in HD no less! The HD on DirecTV doesn't look that much different than E*, at least to my eye. With the new switch I got the HD DVR...

Agree--I decided heck with it and moved on to Direct. I really want MASN and YES regardless of the EI end game. Didn't cost me as much as I thought--their "Everything Package" is $99 a month, $89 for the first six months. They credited the HBO/MAX package, so I got a $22 discount for three...

And another thing! To add insult to injury, even though a Red Sox fan, I do follow the O's and Nat's, which are also my locally assigned teams from MLB. The O's are playing right now on ESPN2, but its blacked out for me since MASN is also carrying the game. Does Dish carry MASN? Hell no. So no...

Going to D* I've lurked in this thread for a long time, decided to jump in. Let me state that from a fan point of view, I think MLB is the bad guy--not D*, E* or cable. MLB made a similar move last year when they moved MLB game audio to XM and Sirius was shut out. Why MLB thinks losing a huge...

Thanks guys. Hall's answer is what I suspected; once they assign a "local" to your market, you're hosed! In looking over the more precise rules provided, I suspect if I put up an outdoor antenna, I might get the CBS signal as a Grade B (snowy) most days, and maybe the NBC from Norfolk. I am...

I''m confused about the entire DNS "qualification" scheme. Maybe someone here can help. I live in the Outer Banks of North Carolina (zip 27959). The only TV station licensed here is WSKY-4, which has no network affiliation. The next closest station is the NPR station, WUND-2 in Columbia, NC...

One other issue; on both the car and home docking module, there is a switch on the back of the docking station that locks the receiver in the cradle. Because the cradle is plastic, it does change shape with changes in temp, especially the car docking unit. I have found that whenever I have an...
