udonkey Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 The listings on the web (and Lori's post) say that the game is on channel 709, but my DirecTV listings say its 707. Which is it? I have to work tomorrow, so I'm setting the DVR so that I can watch the game when I get home... Any help ASAP is appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajzepp Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 why not just call directv customer service? you really want to rely on one of us for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 The onscreen sports schedule on DirecTV itself says 709. They should know I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udonkey Posted September 10, 2006 Author Share Posted September 10, 2006 It evidently just changed...when I posted, it said 707...now it says 709. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsDaily Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 Tivo has it as 707, Directv has it as 709... Tivo standalone units have all the games on the wrong channels... I sent a note to Tivo no response Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just Jack Posted September 10, 2006 Share Posted September 10, 2006 I have mine set to record any sports program with "Buffalo" in the title, so I'm sure to get it. But it's on locally for me so all I can tell you is in Syracuse, it'll be on 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my computer (which is hooked up to DirecTV via Windows Media Center), when I tune to 709, it says Bills/Patriots in the header, but when I scan forward to 1pm, it still says Ravens/Bucanneers. Seeing that the other TVs in the house are showing 709 to be correct, I'm going to go with 709 and be really pissed off if I get home at 6pm and have the wrong game recorded.
