Is Uverse Austin carrying KTBC subchannel Buzzr?

Today Fox Austin (KTBC) launched their sub-channel Buzzr. It is available for free via an HD Antenna, but I wanted to see if this is a station that I can also obtain via Uverse (since I don't have an antenna set up)?


Does anyone know if this is a channel we get via Uverse or not?

 

Thanks

Unfortunately, U-verse does not carry subchannels at this time. From what I read on Wikipedia, Buzzr is going to be a subchannel of the local Fox stations. As of now, the local St. Louis Fox channel is not carrying Buzzr.

@dwinth It's only set to air on FOX O&O's for now with more stations tentatively to air it in July.

As for U-Verse not airing subchannels, I think it depends on the market. Even though there's quite a few out here, U-Verse Lubbock does have 2 that I know of: Me-TV Lubbock (sub of KCBD NBC11) and FOX 34 News Now (sub of KJTV FOX34)

I have an OTA antenna and I ain't got it. My FOX local (WHNS in Greenville/Spartanburg (SC) has Cozi TV and Escape as subchannels. No Buzzr. I guess WHNS isn't FOX O&O. In fact, I didn't even know that subchannel existed until I read this thread. It appears that it is an all old game show channel. Could be interesting at times I guess. I used to like Joker's Wild and Tic Tac Dough.

NEED HELP?
