You would have to move to Tennesee.
The locals are spot beamed to specific areas. If you don't live in the footprint of the spot beam, then you can't get the channels.

NFL on Bev only worked for 1st quarter last week..at least that what everybody has said...I went to a local Tiki pub, that had women in tongs and watched on a huge screen with some cold beer and wings....the scenery and game (Pats 40-7) were great!....LOL

Tony...give me some more info...I'm guessing they're playing Titans....your sats, etc and check DN official site for game channels...then use www.dsbtalk.com/dishlist and look up the TP and sats for Buffalo and Tenn local areas...or maybe a national televised game..

Tony...I bet the game will be sold out by game time cause Bills now have a chance at playoffs...then it will NOT be blacked out..

i dont think the wife and kids would like me coming home with a beer or 12 in me for christmas eve supper

what are U saying, your Italian family can't cook the rest of the year!...LOL...just joking!...I understand, but I do know some large Italian families that all go to games and have a blast and combine it all together..and would MUCH rather GO to the game than watch it on TV....anyways , good luck....did U do as I recommended and check the Dishnetwork official site for which channels the game is, on under Sundays programming...then check dbstalk.com to see if what TP and sats those channesl are on?

It appears that its NOT blacked out in the Buffalo locals area...isn't Rochester considered in the LOCAL Buffalo area?..not that far apart... I remember in NE, 100 miles away some games would be blacked out due to not being sold out..

I also live in the Buffalo area and the problem is they will have it scheduled but if it isn't sold out they carry a different team . Two week ago i got it on tv8201 i don't know where that is . I think this station wa suppoed to carry the bills last week but changed at 1:00

David...U have a very good point..I have seen the same in past years, and then no game as scheduled...or suddenly after all week of newspapers stating game will NOT be televised locally, then they sell out and game IS televised..time will tell..

hey lk i checked that site you gave me and it didnt come up, and going to the game is way better, use to have season tickets, but we gave them up when the started to charge us full price for 2 crappy preseason games, rochester is in the blackout area, back thanks for giving me that channel, maybe the NFL will be nice and lift the blackout for christmas on sunday, i think they can afford it

No, every single Sunday afternoon Bills game has been broadcast on GLB-Toronto all season... I've had hell trying to find all my games this season.... I havn't been able to get the Sunday Ticket to work on BEV yet, and I've only seen about 1/3 of my Texans games... which has turned out to be a blessing anyways!!!

I've watched many teams hammer the piss outta Houston this year... as long as they keep Carr in, it will continue well into next season!

You don't disgust me, in fact I'm impressed with the amount of knowledge you have for FTA... I just grew tired of your demeanor. I understand the frustration of answering the same question 1000 times over... but you can't expect people to weed through the millions of threads on this site trying to find every question they have... believe me, I've tried!!!!

The Bills game last week was not on anywhere that I could find. It was listed in the guide on several stations but it was not the Bills game when I tuned it in. NFL on BEV is not operational.
Global Toronto follows the NFL black out rules. Two weeks ago I watched the Bills on a Nova Scotia Global station.

Why is the Sunday Ticket not working on Bell?... a couple of weeks ago I did a scan 5 minutes before the 11:00 games... all the channels came on, as soon as they ended the pre-game shows and went to their respective games... "Scrambled Channel" on all of em!

It is working on Bev, but Bev is knowing this and screwing with it...it was on last week for first quarter..may have No problems this week,,

Bill..NOBODY should be using this site, if they Truly want to learn and manintain their FTA receivers!...thats why I posted a thread of "List of Reputable sites" here...U can find things simply and fast, and more info/help and any manuals and files U need there...this is NOT a REAL satellite forums....and people who use the excuse "I don't want to register" are nuts!...I belong to about 25 sites and never receiver spam, popups etc...and talk is legal..

/\ I've registered at a few as well, and learned a great deal in a short time... but this one is my "original" I googled years ago, back in the HU card days... guess it has some sentimental value to me. LOL!!!

thanks for all the info
lk do you remember i asked you about a faulty q signal, the signal would work for about 5 hours then iwould change channels and it would go down, so i would have to turn the receiver off and it would come back again, i think a found the problem, faulty disq switch, anyway hope everyone has a merry christmas
