U-Verse TV Louisiana

Does anyone know why we are still unable to get WVLA-TV, Channel 33 in Baton Rouge? It seems like a year since we've been able to view on U-verse. I think it's terrible that we are not getting updates and that the channel has not broadcast for months.

Since it is in HD, that extra 2 1/2 hours of the recording is taking up a lot of space. Question- is there a wa

Do the LINK and HD lights on the receiver always stay on? They are small but very bright and light up a dark room.
