Hey All...I have just installed the 72.7 system, enjoying the programs. I noticed that there is a PBS station, channel 249 on Conus with the 72.7 ...if I order it, will it come up or does a person need a special address to get it? or more so, a certain area in the US is needed that provides PBS on Conus?
All info greatly appreciated.

That is the national PBS feed. If you have any local PBS stations available to you with your subscription, no you can't order it. These are PBS rules....

 

[Mr Tony]

That PBS is only available in markets where there is no PBS available

 

[navychop]

But they don't hold DirecTV to those same rules, do they?

 

[Mr Tony]

yes they do

when I had Mankato, MN locals I got National PBS. The market is just CBS & Fox so with D* you get
CBS & Fox Mankato
ABC, NBC from MInneapolis
PBS national

Now that E* added Mankato they do the same thing
