I'm trying to record the White Sox opener tomorrow and it claims "it is not available for viewing in your area." Anyone else in the Chicago area having the same issue? I tried both SD and HD and no luck. FWIW, it will let me record pre-game and post game.

I should be in their home territory--I think 48 miles away.
 
Same issue here and I record all Bulls, Blackhawks and White Sox games on CSN. Same issue when I try to record the Cubs game on Sat. Probably just a glitch.
 
WGN has the Cubs tomorrow, not the White Sox.

I finished an online chat session. Not the sharpest pencil in the drawer...

Dish Rep: Hello ***.
Dish Rep: How may I help you today?
Me: Hi, I'm trying to record tomorrow's White Sox game. Even though they are my home market team, it is saying they are not available in my area.
Dish Rep: Okay.
Me: I have tried both the SD and HD versions of CSN Chicago, but have had no luck.
Dish Rep: Okay.
Dish Rep: Please give me a minute.
Me: sure thing
Dish Rep: Thank you.
Dish Rep: I am really sorry, it is not available in your area.
Me: Why? The MLB map says they are in my home market.
Dish Rep: It will show anything at IL.
Dish Rep: It will not show anything at IL**
Dish Rep: The area is not qualified.
Me: I'm confused. The White Sox have always been in my home market. What's different this year?
Dish Rep: I truly consider your request, i will pass this message to my superiors, so that it will be taken care.
Me: IL is not qualified for the Chicago (located in IL) White Sox?
Dish Rep: Okay.
Dish Rep: Please don't worry about it, you will receive it.
Dish Rep: I have send the request to my superiors.
Dish Rep: They will take care of it.

I read a thread claiming its a known glitch. (not sure which site)
One of the DIRT members posted their official info:
Pull plug to force a reset and download updated EPG info & the problem should be resolved.
 
I'm in Milwaukee (I get CSN Chicago) and I was just able to set up the recording without any problem.

Go Sox!!!

That's a glitch, unless you're a mover you should only be able to get the Brewers. Unless you live south of Milwaukee (like in Kenosha), in that case you get the three teams.
 

TV2 remote will not work when TV1 is in use

A&E and Dish, the future is now?
