If you can not get the CW locally you can get a waiver and receive it out of DC now . the digital transfer does not matter
so i can just call cust service and tell them i dont get it locally and theyll give me a waiver? does this cost anything and how long a process is this from the time i call til i actually get the channel?
It all depends on the CSR you get, you may have to call a dozen times before someone seems to know what a waiver means... more than likely they will hear ..."Sup! Someone is asking me to Wave Here"
Gotta watch Family Guy and Simpsons
well once they establish i want a waiver is it a long drawn out process to actually get the waiver and get the channel???
When DirecTV first added The CW as a DNS I checked the eligibility page and saw that I could get it. I then called DirecTV to add it. It's the SD version, I wish they would add the HD one as DNS.
It's not that easy for the other networks.

That link will show him what locals DirecTV can deliver.
For Distant Network Service (DNS) he needs to enter his address here.

This will tell him what DNS he is eligible for.

Does DirecTV offer locals to Mobile? If so, maybe they don't have a CW affiliate there.
In my case, I had The CW within five minutes after requesting it.
