Jackson, MS waivers

[priester68]

I recently contacted my local NBC WLBT in Jackson, MS about getting a waiver so I could get a HD feed from NY. This is the response I got.


Waivers are granted by a computer screening process. You are automatically denied if any one of the following are met:

Address is in the coverage area of local station

Cable is available

Local stations are offered on satellite



DirecTV has an agreement to carry WLBT in HD. Dish satellite is already carrying WLBT in HD. DirecTV is way behind in offering local channels in HD.

I grew up in that area; I really doubt WLBT will give you waivers. According to E*'s site, they do have WLBT, WJTV, and WAPT in HD.
