DISH Network loses Sinclair Chanels

[Coach Bill Lewis]

I don't know how this will affect those of you with DISH for games this fall. Hopefully it will get resolved soon or you can pull out the old rabbit ears.

So best I can tell, this is local broadcast stations?  Now's the time when people realize that digital antenna is pretty kickass, hammering yet another nail in the cable coffin.

I put an old fashioned antenna up on my chimney in Coppell and pointed it south toward Cedar Hill. Did the "find channels" function on my TV set and for 106! Granted, there are a LOT I never watch - shopping, religious (including a Muslim channel), foreign language (including Vietnamese) - but the picture quality is better than I got with Dish and FAR, FAR better than I got with Time Warner! And you can BUY a TiVO for about $50 instead of paying by the month.
