Does Total Choice Plus come with your local RSN? The (channel listing (http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/learn/Packages_Comparison.dsp) on D*'s site seems to imply you don't, but the package comparison here (http://steve.dbstalk.com/dbs/packagecomparison.htm) says you do. If somebody could confirm this one way or the other I'd appreciate it.
Second, I'm trying to figure out some of the specifics for college basketball blackouts. The D* sports blackout page (http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/see/SportsBlackout.dsp) says the following:
"Blackout rules apply to ESPN FULL COURT only for ACC games in ACC territories. If you live in one of these areas, you may still be able to view these games on your local regional sports network or over-the-air network."
Now my specifics: I live in the Washington, DC DMA and am interested in Georgia Tech basketball. There are several games that are on Full Court which are not shown on my local RSN or OTANs. Does anyone know for sure if these would be blacked out on Full Court (since I presume I'm in an "ACC territory"), and if so, would they also be blacked on any distant RSNs (Fox Sports South) that might show them? I obviously don't want to pay for the subscription in order to watch a single team only to find I'm completely out of luck. Thanks for any help.
