NBC removed from Dish Network

Recommended Posts

I just realized that NBC has been removed from Dish Network. Does anyone know of an alternate way to view the Chief's game tomorrow? I want a way to view it on my TV that is definite, reliable and high quality. If not I may just go get a Spectrum cable box before it starts. Thanks in advance.

If you're close enough to your local broadcast tower, an antenna will work.  

 

You can find out how far you are from the TV tower here:

You can make this in about an hour.  If you don't have a basement full 'o useful-looking stuff, a trip to the nearby Micro Center might be needed for the balun:

'Course, while you're at MicroCenter buying the Balun, you could just buy an HDTV antenna

OK I'm out of the loop, lol. Where do I get peacock or fubo? Do I need an Amazon firestick or something? What about youtube TV or yahoo? Would I get them on my laptop? Where exactly in yahoo? Sorry for being old and clueless, lol. 


just go to yahoo.com on your laptop and it will be streaming there on the main page. Or on sports.yahoo.com.
 

Given that we are fast approaching game time, that seems like your simplist option.

Do we still get on Sunday Ticket?

 

NFL Sunday Ticket is on DirecTV, not Dish Network.  I have DirecTV specifically to get NFL Sunday Ticket.  I just checked and I'm getting NBC now, so whatever happened with Dish Network is not affecting me.

 

NFL Sunday Ticket doesn't include Sunday Night Football, anyway.

Link at the bottom right lets you check if your device is supported.

You can watch on newer Smart TVs from LG, Samsung, Visio etc. or with Apple TV or Fire TV

The TV may already have an app for it installed or you can search/download, then log in and go (like using Netflix)

 

Can also use on computer or ipad

Antenna.

 

I use an outdoor HD antenna to watch home Bills games while using my DTV for Sunday Ticket.  Works great.  
 

I’ve also used those flat indoor antennas with good luck for my lower level TV setup.  Get a few pixalations now and again, not as strong an antenna as the outdoor one.

What are the chances they settle by game time today? Direct TV pulled this BS a couple years ago and I switched to Dish Network before the football season started. Of course they settled right before the season started after I had already switched. I really hate this game of chicken they play. I am prepared to stream the game tonight. I will switch again if they don't get it worked out soon. Dish Network sucks anyways.
