Chicago Local Channel 48 or 26.3

[HoosierBoy]

I was wondering if anyone in the Chicago area can recieve 26.3 on their HR-20 DVR's. As of last evening, it was not available even after re-setting the local channels.

I am able to get 26.3 on my H-20's with no problem.

Is there a trick I am missing?

I emailed WWME last week and received the following response:

We have asked DirecTV to begin carrying it, but they have not said yes to date. You may want to call and write them requesting they add the channel to their Chicago line up. Make sure they know it's WMEU, the former WFBT Channel 48 in Chicago/Weigel Broadcasting.

Sincerely,
WWME-TV, "Chicago's Me-TV!"

As for the 26.3 aspect...

It may not appear until March 1, when the channel actually starts broadcasting.

What does your H20 show for guide data on the channel?

If WWME has submitted their channel, and specifications to Tribune... then it should appear as an OTA option on the HR2* units.

Earl,

My H-20's shows Regular Schedules in the guide.
