At least once a day Fox News, channel 360 shrinks in size. It leaves gray bars on either side. Changing channels brings back the full screen. This is the only channel it occurs on. I vaguely remember this being an issue several years ago with some channels, and it was caused by the ticker at the bot

DIRECTV Equipment
Subchannels are only as good as who is programming them or what the programing is. Some are worthless, some a bit better then that but some are awash in unique stuff (i.e. sports). We'll see how this goes, especially since the FCC wants to shrink
Another reason to include subchannels
On April 29, the San Francisco/San Jose area's NBC station aired a local baseball game until 10 PM, pre-empting two NBC shows. Rather than moving the shows to, say, 2 AM, or airing them on an independent station, the station decided to air the shows on one of its digital subchannels. Needless to s

Alas, UVerse has been eliminated from the AT&T website. The shutting down of the service can't be far behind. Even now, if you want new u-verse service in Columbus (and presumably, everywhere), you can't get it. Too bad. U-verse still has the best DVR in the business. https://www.cordcuttersnews.c
