Digital Subchannels
U-verse in San Antonio, TX, carries only channel 9.1, the basic PBS programming on our local station, KLRN. The station also broadcasts three additional channels: 9.2 -World; 9.3 v-me, a Spanish Language channel; and 9.4, a potpourri of interesting looking programming. KLRN tells me that they have offered all four channels to u-verse at no cost, but only one was selected.
I hope somebody in AT&T management monitors this message board

Those additional channels are called "digital subchannels." AT&T does not carry them in ANY market. The best you can do is to set up a digital antenna to get those channels over the air.

Same here in Chicago. I put up an outside antenna and got a two-fold benefit from it. Got all the channels that the stations offer and it is indeed numerous. Second, the HD PQ is beyond anything U-verse provides(they are the worse hd pq service). Don't expect much from this company, they are TAKING AWAY CHANNELS, not adding them.

KLRN has recommended the antenna solution, but it's a cumbersome nuisance and we lose the U-verse recording feature. Is this is a technical or an administrative issue? Time Warner Cable carries all four channels here in SA. It sounds like "Mother Bell knows best".

You wouldn't make that statement if you had seen Comcast's PQ in the Houston area. It's worse than web video. Seriously.

If that is true, why is it a fact that more channels have been added to the lineup this year than have been removed?

If you make up the time frame. Since I'VE had this bogus service, I"VE LOST MORE CHANNELS than I've gained. That's a fact!

Then why not quit complaining and switch to another service that suits your needs?

First, I hardly need advice from some AT$T fanboy. But I'll give you some advice-If you don't like all the posts complaining on how AT$T has screwed over it customers-DON'T READ THEM!

Let's seen in that time frame yes Hallmark and Hallmark Movie channels have been taken off the air due to a contract dispute, but Sony Movie Channel and Reelz and NBA TV have been added so it's 3 gained and two lost.

Even if there are some who don't care ... my family really enjoyed the Hallmark Movie Channel. Hopefully, AT&T has not given up on trying to reach a solution to bring it back!
