dollars 2 donuts Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) Thank you Directv and NBC/Tenga (spelling) and whatever the situation is between you. 🤨 Unless it is going to be broadcast on some other channel for some other reason, but I doubt it. I’m hoping to stream on the big scream, though, from maybe nfl network. EDIT: the antenna works great. Can’t rewind or record, but picture is great. The situation still bugs me. Mods, please feel free to lock or remove this thread. Edit: please, if someone wouldn’t mind posting the re-airing time of the game on NFL network when it comes up, so those of us in this situation can record it for review. thank you in advance. Go Bills! Edited December 14, 2020 by dollars 2 donuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buffaloboyinATL Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Last Sunday night, I watched the game on 410, which was the Spanish broadcast on Telemundo. I will hopefully be able to do that again this Sunday, and then I’ll play the radio broadcast for sound. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) You're lucky you live in/close to a city where that works. I can't get anything with an antenna, so TEGNA channels are simply inaccessible for me right now.

Giuseppe I am sorry, and by the way, what the hell is the deal with this?! closing in on two weeks is ridiculous. Additionally, and not everyone agrees, but I think I side with Directv on this.

Fred Slacks Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Try downloading the NFL app or the Buffalo Bills app. Usual the locally broadcast games are on those.

PetermansRedemption Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 These disputes anger me to no end. Million dollar companies arguing with million dollar companies. I’m waiting for the streaming service who advertises “no channel disputes, ever”. Directv always seems to have issues.

Klapaucius Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 And they wonder why illegal streaming sites do so well.... FWIW I pay a lot for satellite tv, but am in Canada, so I'm at the mercy of whatever TSN or CTV want to throw on. The plus side is, I'm also close enough to Buffalo to get the game OTA if I need too 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ned Flanders Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 DTV sent me a letter via snail mail last week, saying my service is going up $8/month in January. What corporate genius authorized that while they're blacking out channels? Dumping them after the season...been a customer over 20 years and seen their product/customer service gradually go in the crapper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
