I wonder if they are working on agreements with those particular stations. That may be the holdup.
 
Locals in Kansas City are only working at 50%?

Channel 4 FOX-Not working
Channel 5 CBS-Not Working
Channell 9 ABC-Working
Channel 41 NBC-Working

*Does anyone know why Fox and CBS are dead?
 
this is already in 3 OR MORE other threads. The mods posted stickies and merged threads and it was asked nicely in the stickied thread (users requests) to keep all this like GENERAL info together; now there are 3 - 5 threads all about the same general thing making for total confusion and the same post multiple times.. I know I will be dumped on for mentioning it (I can accept it) , but come on, it is way too easy to keep it all together in one place, so what if you have to read the thread to get the info.

According to the D* website they should be on. Have you called them and asked?
