Now I know why I saw that some Steeler fans were watching their Sunday Game on the Spanish channel. You can probably pick up a streaming channel like Fubo and then cancel it before the free trial is over. Works on a smart TV or laptop.

I ended up dropping DirecTV last year due to this (had it 12 years) and put an antenna on my house. I've signed up for some streaming services, but keep jumping around as the co$t is getting too high (net neutrality, bah humbug). Go Browns. Hope everybody gets to watch it!!!

See below Gipper.... 1 hour ago, Tour2ma said: It's TEGNA... own a bunch of local channels nationwide... NBC in your area and CBS in mine. ↑↑↑ it's billionaires fighting billionaires. The deal is "local" stations are rarely independent anymore. They're owned by big outfits like Tegna or Nexstar. So for the subscription services like Directv, Dish, and others to have the right to carry that channel on their service- they have to pay a royalty fee to the station's owner to carry the local signal. And the negotiations of what exactly that royalty fee is worth have gotten progressively uglier and more contentious of late. Of course, you the consumer pay the increased freight when they eventually settle. We had a similar issue Dayton way last year with Direct feuding with Nexstar, we lost CBS on satellite for over a week. As I mentioned to Steve- there is a solution assuming you don't live way out in the boondocks. The stations direct over the air signal is always available, so get thee to Amazon and buy an amplified indoor antenna ($20-30 bucks) problem solved.

This problem of these greedy aceholes has effected Dish for years! We lost Sports Time Ohio in August of 2019 so no Indians games or Browns insider stuff! We also lost Fox 8 3 weeks ago. same people TEGNA! Going to buy the antenna for that, but Dish says NO progress on the STO front....When the contract is up BYE!!! GO BROWNS!!

It's basically a pancake that gets flattened against your wall and has a small wire running to your TV.

Thanks, yes indeed a friend of mine has one of those usb units and offered it to me because, as he said, it didn't work very well in his place so he went with an outdoor system that can be aimed depending on which channel he was trying to get. and what the heck they might certainly work fine here.

It's where I having been watching the Browns from SoCal, without DirecTV for 3yrs now. It is a clean site that you can check with virustotal.com (76 of the industries best AV/Malware engines all at the same time). The only program that doesn't like the link is Norton ConnectSafe DNS.... but it's Norton, so who cares? I have to wait until the game starts as it is the easiest way to get you there. You'll be about 2 plays behind real-time and you will have to click out of a couple of adds one per quarter, but that's the only negative thing I can say about it.

Thank you gentlemen WSS Steve- you may not need an outside antenna.... This handy dandy site will tell you. https://www.antennaweb.org/ Just plug in your address, and it will tell you what stations are available, and what type of antenna you would need to pull them in. I'm lucky (sort of) the Dayton antenna farm is only 6 miles from my house, but I'm on the wrong side of a hill. An indoor amplified 10" mini-dish antenna plugged into an accessory OTA box that ties into my Directv receiver with a SATA cable (that Directv doesn't want you to know about) does fine- usually. You just have to go into settings and tell the receiver to program local channels into the play menu. The deal is when the FCC mandated TV stations go digital- you either get the signal- or you don't. Not exactly. A poor signal will pixelate or intermittently freeze. PS- when you go OTA- all the the local stations have subchannels with alternate programming. Our CBS has 7.1 (that's the stuff you usually see) and 7.2 MeTv oldies like Gilligan's Island, Gunsmoke and such. Our local PBS has at least 5 subchannels, but I almost never watch them...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
