I have made a lot of e-mails on the Cablevision site that there is major change to the channel line-up effective 11/15. Among them is the addition of NFL Network on channel 148 which will mean no more wasted channels on iO digital cable. Cablevision should work a multi-year deal to add NFL Network within the next week to 10 days @ the most.

11/15 is when CV is turing off TCM and some other channels analog feeds on most of not all systems.
