When I tune to ABCE, ABCW, CBSE, CBS@, NBC...you get the idea, although I get the old "721" message and no picture shows up, I also get sound!

I called DirecTV last night to see why this was (hoping that maybe the laws changed and that I could get the out-of-area major networks without a waiver) but the guy said that I could not, and that I shouldn't even be hearing the sound.

Does anyone else get sound on these (81., 82, etc.) channels?


BTW, the guy from DirecTV siad that even with a waiver from my local affiliate, there is no way in heck that DirecTV would allow me to have access to ANY of the channels (and I really wanted ABCE).

I get sound on stations I'm not authorized to get also. For example, the MPEG-4 FSN games on channel 95 & 96 that aren't local.
