Dodger Games

[Rage]

Are there any Dodger games OTA anymore? If so, then why isn't this channel on the LA Dishnets package?

[MikeW]

The Dodgers moved to KCOP this year. You won't see any games unless you live in their market.

[Rage]

Is that a UPN station or something?

[Lyle_JP]

Yes, it's a UPN station owned by FOX, actually.

You would think that that channel would be added to the Dishnets because of must-carry.

[Neil Derryberry]

must-carry only applies to individual dma's, AFAIK.

[Steve Mehs]

Distant Nets are only supposed to include ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox. There was some mention when E* started to add the must carry channels that Distant Net subs were also getting those channels.

[MikeW]

AFAIK, NY & LA Distants only get the big four nets. I have Dallas & Denver. The Dallas Nets give me all channels. I've even repointed my dish and seen that the channels on 148 appear in the guide as well. For some reason, I get all Denver channels with the exception of KTVD the UPN affiliate. So again, unless you live in LA, fuget about the Dodgers or sign up with MLB EI.

Eh?! Rage: I thought baseball was boring!

That's why I want it... to put me to sleep.
