    AT&T To Buy DIRECTV for $67 Billion

    Another good thing, U-verse customers probably will get access to MLB Extra innings and NFL sunday ticket as well I would guess.

    Terre Haute "locals"

    I agree something is whacked, every county around us has locals from different DMA's to the north it's the Central IL locals, to the east, the TH locals, to the South in Wayne county (the Rinard address you used, and Clay City's zip has addresses in wayne county too) it's the Evansville locals...

    Terre Haute "locals"

    And here's one for the what the heck is directv thinking department.. Ok so when they launched the TH locals I thought, OK since they don't give us the St Louis Locals (even though Dish Network does), or the Evansville locals, they'd give us the Terre Haute Locals..... WRONG! I checked the...

    DIRECTV to Offer Local Channels in 172 Markets

    First I ever heard of someone being asked to BUY an external market local... Although honestly IMO if your in Indiana just get an antenna and point it at Indianapolis... unless your in Sullivan or TH it self you should be able to get an antenna that can pick up the Indy Stations, with it what...

    Directv Broadcasting WDSU NBC 6 on channel 361

    big props to DTV for doing this. Dish network...... nothing, Not even the hurricane info network that they had up during Katrina/Rita in 2005. Maybe the next storm E* will be better about this than Directv is.

    DIRECTV Remains Clear HD Leader with 130 HD Channels

Champaign-Urbana, Evansville, Paducah, and St Louis all in HD before end of year.... whereas they don't even have what they consider our market terre haute in SD! lol. I since a lot of folks who want HD locals to...

    NASCAR HotPass on D*

    great, thanks NASCAR for becoming a sole sponsorship deal like the NFL. This really pisses me off! If you are going to go satellite only, then you got to give BOTH services the option to have it. now I know why NASCAR's ratings have been dropping, oh wait that was the incompent NBC annoucers...

    does D* have a free-for all promo like E*?

    I was checking of D* had the free-for-all promo like E* does where you buy the equipment upfront, and get credits to pay you back, making the system free?

    Fox net buy Turner South

    I doubt that they will turn it into an all sports channel. Why would they need to since they already have FSN south based from Atlanta......

    D* adds RTN affiliate to St.Louis local channels

    Here is why it is not on the H-P-CG locals. It's really based out of st.louis, but the main tower is about 15 miles north of Mount Vernon, in Marion county. It's a good channel if you like old tv shows.

    DirecTV to Launch Significantly Viewed DMA service

    Not a big suprise, D*'s Employees don't know a thing about SV. Just asking, did you mention SV, or what they call it. like neigboring local channels?

    Price Increase!

    you would think that when a competitor would raise prices, they would keep the same price, or even lower it.. Lower prices could sway some customers who were thinking of changing anyway, and the prospect of saving money would just seal the deal... EVEN IF IT IS ONLY $2.

    MPEG4 HD DVR and Home Media Center news:

    I've came in here late, this Home Media Center, could someone point me in to an area of just what this is going to do? Will this be 1 reciever that will work for every tv, vcr in the whole house, or will you still need to get seperate recievers? Because my parents have a lot of TV's, VCR's and...

    D* DMA's are crazy

    hey I got a e-mail response from d* today. They basically blew me off and said that we are in Terre Haute and there was nothing I could do about it. Is there anything I can do to show them of their mistake of having us put in the TH market? I doubt it but who knows.

    D* DMA's are crazy

    that's something I would like to see. Local stations around me have gotten serious rap this month for showing nearly non-stop coverage of the torando outbreaks here in my area. but then those who rely on an antenna would not be able to see their favorite shows on the networks.

    DirecTV to Launch Significantly Viewed DMA service

    hey do you think the lack of any SV launch had to do with spaceway not being launched till tonight?

    D* DMA's are crazy

    Yes, it is possible that we got moved back, and on EKB the national map is from 2002-2003 DMA info. the local maps are as far as I know the current maps. So and this site could have the wrong information on it too.

    D* DMA's are crazy

    yeah thatwould make sense, but when E* has you in the st. louis DMA and directv has us in the terre haute DMA. That doesn't make sense. Of course each company has it's own discretion, E* just uses updated dma maps and D* uses ones from the stone age. to the end of the post:Because D* has NO...

    D* DMA's are crazy

    is there a way to check to see if clay county somehow got moved out of the stupidness of nielsen, cause terre haute tv stations don't give worth crap about clay county, and st. louis actually does.

    D* DMA's are crazy

    Actually I did complain to them for another person who lives near me. That's how I found out that THEY have us in the terre haute dma, which will never get locals cause there's only 2 stations, the rest come from indianapolis. is there a way to get them (d*) to change this mistake in their...
