    Directv CBS-HD Questions

    As I understand it - no way to get the game. The only way you might be able to get CBS thru D* is to live in one of the "designated DMA's" - there are seventeen I think thruout the country. Look on channel 82 - it will explain it better than I can. You may have to do what I'm doing - going...
