The BTN alternates have been removed

 

[Mr Tony]

Why hasn't Directv removed the extra Ion channels that were only used for WNBA?

They still show on stream

Im so glad they added those! The previous year i was missing a lot of mystics game cause ion thinks only DC market is "local" and not all of VA.

So we would get the national game on my local ION WPXV (not Washington mystics game) smh.

College Football Playoff mix prep on 205-1 and 600-1

They finally updated the TMSID for Daystar Puerto Rico, who purchased Puerto Rico's MegaTV stations over the summer, to point to the Spanish listing instead of the English listing. (They really should be pointing to the entry for WTCV as that's the actual station they carry on channel 169 for Puerto Rico)
