Actually, it was kind of fun. I got to sit next to Bob Costas for 8 innings.

I was at the 1999 All-Star Game at Fenway, too, and my eyes weren't dry either. The game was almost anti-climactic after the pre-game ceremonies. I also attended the 1987 MLB All-Star game at Oakland.

If you lower the priority for Dirty Jobs, it will record the program with the higher priority at 8:00 and pick up the Dirty Jobs episode at 11:00.

Both of my favorite NFL teams are out-of-market, so Sunday Ticket it is.

Yep, the WSHM HD feed is both on Comcast and on DirecTV. We're slowly weaning ourselves off of Hartford. :) Good to see you, too!

I'm not sure what is happening, but the Comcast Cable HD Fox channel is now carrying the Fox 6 logo. We used to get Channel 61 from Hartford as our HD Fox. The CW affiliate in the Springfield DMA is cable-only. You can call DirecTV and get CW50 out of Baltimore (Channel 385).

I'm experiencing the same audio/video sync issues with Channel 40. As for Channel 6, when DirecTV added it, I don't believe they were broadcasting yet in HD. But they now are--Comcast just switched their Fox FD feed from Channel 61 to Channel 6. I'm hoping DirecTV will add Channel 6 in HD soon.

In the Springfield-Holyoke DMA, Channel 6 (Fox) is a substation of Channel 40, the ABC affiliate. They just started this summer, and, as far as I know, they are not yet broadcasting in HD. Local cable carries standard definition Channel 6 and HD Fox from Hartford's Channel 61 (outside the DMA).

Well, the good news is that with DirecTV, at least you'll get locals, and HD locals are coming in October. Dish Network still doesn't offer locals of any kind in our DMA. If you need a local installed, PM me, and I'll send you the details on my guy. He's always done a great job for me, and...

The MX-500 predates the DirecTV HD-DVR's, so I wouldn't be surprised if they don't have a built-in code. I used the learning mode to teach my MX-500 for both an HR-20 and an HR-21.

The Hartford Fox affiliate has been offered on our cable systems for quite some time, and it's included in the Springfield locals on DirecTV. (Dish Network still doesn't offer locals in the DMA.) Hopefully, the new Channel 55 will provide Red Sox and Patriots coverage when they're on Fox...

How did Hancock's father leave out the cell phone manufacturer and whoever grew the marijuana in the vehicle?

I have all four distant networks from DirecTV (grandfathered status). DirecTV provides my locals, but the only CW affiliate is cable-only. I used to get the WB affiliate from Baltimore before it was pulled when it became CW. I called to see if I qualified for channel 385, and I was told...

The HD channels were back in my favorites lists this morning.

Will, I noticed the same thing on my Motorola 6412 last weekend.

I submitted my order for distant channels on Saturday morning, and they haven't been turned on yet.

Thanks, cybr! I hadn't noticed that Comcast had added this channel that I've been hoping for.

Your TV has what is called a QAM tuner (and I'll have to defer to someone with more knowledge to explain what QAM means--I have no idea). The unencrypted HiDef channels are viewable on those channels. If you look at Comcast's descriptions of HiDef, they only show the premium HiDef channels as...

Don Knotts and Dennis Weaver were both 81 and both best known for a role as deputy.

I've been using a Slingbox since last summer, mostly around the house. There's nothing like watching a baseball game while sitting by the pool. I've occasionally used it at the office when there's breaking news, and once in a while to schedule a recording remotely.

And nobody's mentioned yet the worst Super Bowl rendition of the national anthem ever.

Satjay, I've been thinking about the same thing myself. Up until a few days ago, I had DirecTV along with the most basic service from Comcast. In my case, Comcast's Internet service alone would have cost me more than Comcast with standard cable. But I just added an HD TV, and there's one...

The source of the problem is the "light sensor" that adjusts the television's display to the light level in the room. The manual does state, "Do not put anything near the sensor, as its function may be affected." I turned off the light sensor feature, and move the receiver back to its original...

Marty, thank you for your post! I bought a Bravia a couple of weeks ago, and my IR stopped working on my 508. I never made a connection between the IR failure and the new TV because I didn't notice a problem until a week or two after I installed the TV. Moving the 508 about four feet away from...
