    PEACHTREE TV ATLANTA BRAVES BASEBALL

    I was a Dish cusomer for nearly 6 years but I had to switch to DirecTV in 2008 in order to get Peachtree TV.

    Since I subscribed to Dish in November of 2002, the credit card I gave them has been destroyed because of a privacy issue. I guess I'll just wait to see if they send me a bill in a few weeks.

    I switched to DirecTV April 5, 2008 and cancelled Dish the same day. I have yet to receive a final bill from Dish. My 18 month contract would have been up in October of this year, so I should have had a penalty to pay. They sent me a box and I returned the HD receiver, remote and LNB about 10...

    Received a reply from braves.com and it said that the Braves are working on a press release that would outline how Braves fans outside the Atlanta coverage area would be able to watch the 45 Peachtree TV games. Haven't seen anything on the website but I'm keeping an eye on it.

    Nascar not in HD on FOX!

    Thanks guys. I checked OTA from FOX 6 in Birmingham, AL and it was also in SD. All of a sudden OTA and Dish Network local for WBRC FOX 6 is HD. This had to have been a local affiliate issue.

    Same problems in Central Alabama This new Knight Rider sux just like NBC HD sux with all the pixel problems and image break-up. This was happening a few weeks back with the B'ham NBC HD feed and it cleared for about a month and now it's back. Maybe it will be fixed in a short time.

    herky-jerky channels anyone?

    I have experienced this "herky jerky" or split second freeze up of the picture. Scroll on the news channels also hangs up. I have noticed this mostly on SD channels, but I also have the same concern on TBS HD. Powering down and rebooting seems to fix this temporarily. Tech is supposed to come...
