I hope everyone can get good internet soon so you can move to streaming if you wish.

How many locals would you get?

Good time to stock up your DVD library.

Put up an antenna for locals and get a smart tv.....tons of stuff on there for free. I regret not cutting the cord sooner.

Ok thanks!

Does dish still have these? All I can find is the adapter for the wally/hopper series. I would like to get MeTV for my dad's receiver. Thanks!

I agree. I think in 10 years satellite/cable will only be a small piece of the current market, and most will get their networks OTA and ala carte via the internet.

8 miles away from the towers you should have no trouble at all. Many of that guys OTA troubles were his own doing from the lowsy installation. What I did was install a good OTA antenna and get 11 crystal clear channels, nexflix for the movies/shows, and the final piece will be a FTA setup. I...

The channel does suck. Discovery health was a excellent channel I always watched until I dumped pay tv. I was visiting my friend today who works in the medical field and she was livid over the change. I told her maybe the shows will pop up on TLC.

I agree. FOX had no intention of standing down so DN had to sign before the locals were dropped(would have been a PR nightmare), and once DN caved that put pressure on Cablevision since the FCC basically told them to get lost. There were several articles stating FOX got the money out of DN, but...

Good idea, and it will come in handy for research if or when the channels are shifted or prices increases.

Excellent post. This is why I support Fox. If they dont get the revenue needed ESPN will mop up the floor and there wont be any sports worth watching for us using OTA.

Yes, some are HD including FOX news, but all the locals including FOX are HD. So anyone who has cable internet should try it. The channels are the usual "lifeline" channels nothing special.

Hehe, I just tried it and get 20 channels including Fox News. I can scrap the FTA now. :)

Antennaweb did not work for me either. Go to TVfool.com and enter your address. Post your results in the message board and the folks will help you. According to antennaweb I would not get any channels...I get all the networks including a few subchannels. :)

No, you need DirectTV or other cable provider. Fox to Cablevision Subs: Get Thee to an Antenna - 2010-10-22 18:17:41 | Broadcasting & Cable

Fox is already telling cablevision customers to switch providers or purchase an antenna, so they have no intention of backing down and I support them 100%. I dont want ESPN to have a monopoly on sporting events.

NJ State Senator Wants Retrans Impasse Refund - 2010-10-21 14:01:13 | Broadcasting & Cable New Jersey State Senator Tom Goodwin wants Cablevision to reimburse its customers for the ongoing channel blackouts due to the Fox/Cablevision retransmission consent dispute.

Our local FOX news sports reporter said the same thing. They want to compete with ESPN and I dont blame them. Infact in the long run it may be better for everyone if FOX/ESPN can compete against each other on a more level playing field.

Here is a good video about Fox/Dish..........take mention at end what is outselling satellite. Local Dish Network dealers affected by Fox Sports blackout : News : UpNorthLive.com

DTV is offering deals to dish customers who have ETF's. It always pays to check it out could save you some $$$

Before I went with OTA/Internet I called about the family pack and was told I could no longer get it. I tried calling/chating several times to no avail. I called DTV and was told they no longer list their family pack on the website, but to call and I could get it. Dish had a MUCH better...
