Re: FSN-Pittsburgh in Harrisburg PA??
Hopefully there will be additional impetus for providing it to Central PA after the Pens made their run. Go Bucs! |

| Wanted to follow-up on this. FSN-Pittsburgh needs to be added in central PA. I'd like to watch the Pirates games this summer. Can't do it with MLB ticket, because the Pirates games are blacked out. There is no option to see these games. Central PA is certainly a Pittsburgh market (especially the Steelers and growing for the Pens). We get the Baltimore (MASN) and Philly (CSN Philly) channels - Pittsburgh would be as popular.
Who do you contact at Verizon for a channel request? |

I will let you know if the date slips but it's scheduled as of now. I can't say exactly how I know but JeepMatt is correct. |

| Many thanks for the news, VZ Mark. Please keep me updated.
One other thing - do you happen to know if Comcast Sports Net Mid-Atlantic (Washington D.C.) would also be in the works. Similar situation to FSN Pittsburgh - the central PA area is also a D.C. sports market - Washington Capitals hockey predominantly, Washington Wizards, and Redskins news. Smaller markets just to the south of us (such as York) have the channel. It would be nice if it were opened up to the larger Harrisburg area. |

Basking Ridge, NJ | The short answer is yes CSNMA is in the works for part of the Harrisburg VHO but it will not be added with FSN Pittsburgh on 7/20. No date set as of today... |

Camp Hill, PA | Mark,
Will FSN-Pitt be for all of Harrisburg VHO, or just those folks over in Mechanicsburg who do not get Comcast-Philly?

Basking Ridge, NJ | FSN Pittsburgh will be available to all VHO14 sub's, not sure about what package it would be included in but will be grouped with other RSN's if that helps... |
