Agreement for Local Channels

I read where DTV and Nexstar came up with an agreement to turn our local channels back on.   

When can I expect to be able to watch my FOX channel for area cade 73521?

While it is a temporary agreement the channels are already back, my KTLA channel 5 is working.

Nexstar manages other channels owned by Mission and White Knight unknown if this agreement includes them.

Yea, My KJTL station says it is Nexstar. Don't know if they are part of those.  I just sent a message to DTV to see if I am getting mine back....

Have you checked https://www.directv.com/tvpromise/ to see if there is any word on why?

Start with a red button reset and logging into your account to refresh authorizations.

It is possible they might still be provisioning. If so I wouldn't expect that to take more than 24-48hrs. The temporary return was only just announced.
