| From today's email: "We are pleased to announce our 26th market: Madison, Wisconsin. Available today, and just in time to watch the Packers’ playoff game this Saturday, you can now stream local broadcast TV channels in 11 counties in Madison and the surrounding area." |
| "With your support, we added more than 1 million users last year, making us one of the fastest-growing live TV streaming services. Locast now has more than 2 million registered users nationwide in 26 markets – large and small – reaching nearly half of the U.S. population." |

| We are pleased to announce we’ve launched our streaming service into our 29th market – Sacramento. |

I recall seeing somewhere that Locast is expecting the case to go to court sometime this summer. Locast so far covers the top 20 DMA's (2021 rankings) with the exception of Cleveland/Akron (19), and Portland is 21st, so there's certainly reason to hope it may be covered pretty soon.

You didn't think Dish was already involved when they added the Locast app to the Hoppers?
The app is on the Dish Hoppers as well, whether your service address is in a Locast DMA or not. As a mobile full time RV'er, it's always nice to find we're in a location where it works on the Hopper. but otherwise we just use Locast and a VPN on our Firestick to grab the closest DMA that does have Locast service. Right now we're getting the Orlando, FL DMA on the Hopper, and when we move southwest to a different RV park tomorrow, I think we'll be getting the Tampa, FL DMA.
