Re: [OT] Anyone have SBC satellite TV here? said by latichever: Question for satellite tv people. Is it possible yet to get both CT and NY local channels? For example, could I get both channel 13 and CPTV (PBS), New York and CT network stations, plus channel 61 Hartford and channel 11 NY?
You need to apply for a waiver(through DirecTV), since you're able to get your locals. it's up to your local channels, i.e. WFSB(CBS), WTNH(ABC), etc... to let you get the NY & LA feeds, not DTV or DishTV. I'll tell you this, you'll get denied ABC & CBS, and more than likely get NBC & Fox. Plus it's around 2.50 per month per channel to get these feeds. I got denied ABC & CBS repeatedly, and got the other 2 on my first request. You cannot circumvent the waiver process. this is all done in accordance with federal legislation. good luck. PM me if you have any questions. | |  pandoraPremium join:2001-06-01 Outland kudos:1 Reviews:

Actually you can, some (like myself) are grandfathered in. I have all east and west coast network feeds for NY and LA, never needed to file any waiver form. I think there is a rule about people who had service before mid 1999. However, it does leave me stuck with Dishnet, if I cancel or lose service, I lose my west coast feeds  | |
