Yes, Ditch DISH. Uverse hs two alternate channels and i've seen several games on them in part when another runs long.


Are those HD channels? I just noticed that the ALT HD channel said to check the same non-HD channel for alternate broadcasting. I was just looking at the HD ALT channels, and not checking the non-HD ALT channels, since I assumed they would both show the same programing, one in HD and one in non-HD.

I have DirecTV and I pay for the extra sports packages. The alt channel never shows anything except for a Directv logo.

Same thing with DISH - I've been calling their customer service and complaining, and I never get a logical explanation.

Only direct tv has a problem with secn a. Other carriers are showing it . On the phone with direct yesterday with direct for over an hour talking to supervisor and complaint about Friday night .
Consolation is they have me a. $10 per month credit for the next year . He told me not too many have called otherwise direct would give attention to the matter . Please encourage every one to complain, and insist on speaking with supervisor. !

I'm having the same problem with DISH. I've been talking to a customer service rep - should I talk to higher level management?

The Lehigh game was moved to the Sec alternative because of the long rain delay. I watched it there.

It wasn't on the SECN Alt channels on DISH here in Montana. Are the Alt channels only local or regional telecasts?



I don't know. I have U-Verse and it simply told me to turn to a particular numbered Chanel.

So what you're saying is that my parents are gonna be bitching all day tomorrow that the game wasn't on TV because they don't understand the Internet.


No, I'm saying if you weren't such a horrible son you would have set them up with a streaming device and a basic instruction manual with large print and pictures.

Have Direct TV HD package and the Alt Channel has been on once in memory. I have complained to DTV CS and they say it's discretion of programming, WETF that means. Of course the fing LHN is on.
