CBS stations return to DISH

[fhsucade07]

They pulled WUPA-69 (CW) in the Atlanta market. Pulling the CW... I should probably TIP DISH!

WBZ and WSBK in Boston is gone too!

Not surprisingly they also pulled down the superstation feed of WSBK.
Also, while the Showtime channels are still up, on the Hoppers all of the Showtime/TMC/Flix logos were removed from the guide when I turned it on this AM.

I see WSBK is blacked out in my Superstation Package. It has a screen saying not to call in that they hope to have the channel restored as soon as possible.

 

[Scherrman]

meh, wife will be pissed if not running by Football. May see if there is an hdtv antenna on sale tomorrow.

Don't worry about it being an HD antenna. Just find a good UHF/VHF antenna.

just checked the dish is on your side site and their's no update as in they haven't really got around to put slates on the local CBS station saying "CBS has removed your channel," slate yet.

No statement to retailers either...suppose they're gone for the weekend.

KPIX, CBS in San Francisco is off the air. There is a message, "Sorry for the interruption of service. There is no need to call us..." etc.
Kinda makes you wonder, don't it...

i am on with dish on their chat line right night trying to get a discount all they are offering me is 5 dollars for three months

 

[space86]

Da da da da da da da da da HBO is on tonight !!!

Yea that's right it's not 90s anymore

 

[Bobby]

I'm gonna be watching the PAC 12 Conference Championship game on Fox tonight! I still have CBS OTA!

 

[Modwild]

I'm also down one of the superstations. Anybody know if the rest will go off the air? I lost WSBK.

Showtime is still on. Any idea why?

Finally, does anybody know how to "force" a dish 722k to program an OTA station even if it's not receiving the best signal?

 

[The Fat Man]

Well, should have expected that from the same guy who gave Opie and Anthony a contract that stated they could talk about what they want on their old WNEW show, to only threaten to fire their PD if they didn't stop talking about Howie. "See now you knew i meant buisness". Easy to cut off the Amazing Race you jackass. Let's see if this continues into the NFL on Sunday.

 

[space86]

Back by NFL kickoff Sunday I bet

 

[Tampa8]

WSBK is CBS owned that's why it is off.

Keep them on the line. Keep arguing. I got them to $10 last night by going up a level.

 

[Tampa8]

Da da da da da da da da da HBO is on tonight !!!

I'm not following. Are you saying you are getting HBO in place Showtime?

 

[Juan]

They didn't pull channel 55 in new York..owned by CBS

 

[Santinelli]

So let me get this straight... No CBS, aka patriots, and I just went searching for the Celtics and they dropped Comcast sports?!?! What the f?????

I'm thinking I made a huge mistake going back to dish..... :-(
