List of Directv Channels (United States)
List of DirecTV channels (United States) Below is a numerical representation of the current DirecTV national channel lineup in the United States. Some channels have both east and west feeds, airing the same programming with a three-hour delay on the latter feed, creating a backup for those who missed their shows. The three-hour delay also represents the time zone difference between Eastern (UTC -5/-4) and Pacific (UTC -8/-7). All channels are the East Coast feed if not specified. High definition Most high-definition (HDTV) and foreign-language channels may require a certain satellite dish or set-top box. Additionally, the same channel number is listed for both the standard-definition (SD) channel and the high-definition (HD) channel, such as 202 for both CNN and CNN HD. DirecTV HD receivers can tune to each channel separately. This is required since programming may be different on the SD and HD versions of the channels; while at times the programming may be simulcast with the same programming on both SD and HD channels. Part time regional sports networks and out of market sports packages will be listed as ###-1. Older MPEG-2 HD receivers will no longer receive the HD programming. Special channels In addition to the channels listed below, DirecTV occasionally uses temporary channels for various purposes, such as emergency updates (e.g. Hurricane Gustav and Hurricane Ike information in September 2008, and Hurricane Irene in August 2011), and news of legislation that could affect subscribers. The News Mix channels (102 and 352) have special versions during special events such as the 2008 United States Presidential Election night coverage and during the Inauguration of Barack Obama. -
NPSTC T-Band Contribution to Incentive Auction Educational Paper
April 4, 2019 The T-Band Spectrum Contributed to the Incentive Auction Proceeds 1. Executive Summary NPSTC and public safety agencies who rely on the T-Band spectrum have provided clear documentation that relocation out of the public safety T-Band spectrum as required under Section 6103 of Public Law (P.L.) 112-96 would significantly disrupt mission critical public safety voice communications in key major urban areas. A significant number of industrial-business licensees interleaved in the T-Band spectrum would also suffer, even though they are not covered by Section 6103. The loss of auction revenue has been cited in discussions as a potential roadblock to adopting legislation to repeal Section 6103 of P.L. 112-96. However, the T-Band spectrum has been an essential element of the Federal Communications Commission’s 2016- 2017 Incentive Auction, and has already contributed significantly to the $19.8B in proceeds received by providing flexibility to the TV repacking process and reducing the number of TV stations that would otherwise have to be purchased outright. At the conclusion of repacking, the T-Band (470-512 MHz or TV channels 14-20) will support 453 full power and class A TV stations, 231 of which were relocated to the T-Band spectrum to accommodate TV repacking and the incentive auction process. In addition to disrupting public safety operations, failure to repeal Section 6103 of P.L. 112-96 would potentially undermine the TV repacking process and place these TV stations that are already moving at Congress’ and the Commission’s direction at risk. -

Wilson Policy Counsel Matthew F. Wood Policy Director Free Press 1025 Connecticut Avenue, Suite 1110 Washington, DC 20036 202-265-1490 December 21, 2012 SUMMARY AND INTRODUCTION Free Press respectfully submits these comments in response to the Federal Communications Commission’s recently released report on the ownership of commercial broadcast stations (Form 323 Summary Report). As that report shows, and as the Commission acknowledged when it sought further comment, women and people of color hold broadcast licenses “in disproportionately small numbers.” 1 The record in this proceeding and in prior ownership reviews demonstrates conclusively that increased media consolidation and concentration work to keep those numbers low – harming rather than helping diversity of ownership, diversity of viewpoint, and the other public interest goals that the Commission’s policies purport to serve. We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the report, though the truncated comment cycle coming after the Chairman’s office circulated a draft Order leads us to believe this is an exercise in optics, not a serious attempt to give consideration to this critical issue. 2 The Commission, which afforded the public an additional comment period only after interested parties stressed the need for further analysis, characterized itself as “going the extra mile for transparency” as it concluded the 2010 Quadrennial Review.3 However, the Commission has hardly gone the extra mile. -

1 the Impact of the FCC's TV Duopoly Rule Relaxation on Minority And
The Impact of the FCC’s TV Duopoly Rule Relaxation on Minority and Women Owned Broadcast Stations 1999-2006 By: Prof. Allen S. Hammond, IV, Santa Clara University School of Law, Founding Director, BroadBand Institute of California (BBIC) With: Prof. Barbara O’Connor, California State University, Sacramento And Prof. Tracy Westin, University of Colorado Consultants: Prof. Alexander Field, Santa Clara University And Assoc. Prof. Catherine Sandoval, Santa Clara University School of Law, Co-Director, BBIC 1 The Impact of the FCC’s TV Duopoly Rule Relaxation on Minority and Women Owned Broadcast Stations 1999-20061 Executive Summary This study was commissioned to ascertain the impact of the Television Duopoly Rule (TVDR) on minority and female ownership of television broadcast stations. Currently, the only FCC rule deemed to be favorable to minority and female broadcast ownership is the Failed Station Solicitation Rule (FSSR) of the TVDR. The TVDR originally prohibited the ownership of more than one television broadcast station in a market. In 1996, due to industry efforts to protect market gains realized through the use of local management agreements (LMAs)2, the TVDR was amended to allow the ownership of two stations in certain markets provided only one of the two was a VHF station and the overlapping signals of the two owned stations originated from separate albeit contiguous markets. In addition, the acquired station was required to be economically “failing” or “failed” or unbuilt. In an effort to afford market access to potential minority and female owners, the FCC required the owners of the station to be acquired to provide public notice of its availability for acquisition.
