For those living in the Corpus area, getting the new Fox station is hell. Only Grande and Dish can pick it up. This is the biggest two weeks in NASCAR and no one here can see it. I called Direct TV today and squeeled like a nuetered pig and they hooked me up with channel 88 HD Fox out of the East coast with no waiver. I'm a happy camper now

This blog says very few can pick it up and many many people are unhappy. My point is that Direct TV gave me Fox with no waiver

***EDIT*** Channel 98 is FOX

I'm confused, big surprise. Is channel 47 on DirecTv no more?? Bunch of "paid programming" on today. The program guide has channel 388 (FOX) with NASCAR Racing set to begin in 15 minutes. What gives? What did I miss?

What did I miss? No channel 47 is just junk now. Direct TV has no Fox station now. I read on the blog that DT will have channel 38 up and running by tomorrow as the new Fox station. I got DTV to put channel 88 HD on my TV, but if you don't have HD, call and see what your option is 1-800-263-0028
