7. Whaat do you mean by blocked out?

Did they move it? Are you getting colored bars?

8. QVC...is on

C-Span and C-Span 2....when you program the channel it comes up with 5 or 6 "???????" and goes to QVC However I am getting C-Span 3 (NOT impeachment hearing)

10. Is it channel 65 and 66?

That's what it is on LI. I did quick search for Union City, NJ and it seems to be the same.

I hate cablevision. I'm thinking about moving to Verizon. Hopefully the performance will be a little better with fiber.

11. Can you scan through your TV listings? My cable co. moved c-span2

about 2 months ago to another channel number. They never sent out any notice or anything...just did it! When I called them, all pissed off, they told me where it was broadcast now.

9. Stay on hold and let us know what they say, but you can watch it

on www.c-span.org

Just click on watch c-span1

12. Huh?

:wtf: Please let us know what you discover!

[Highway61]

13. Just got through

they moved it to channel 74...no notification...nothing...said they had to rescramble channels. They changed several other channels as well, but all I watch is KO (which is being moved as well) and C-Span.
Thanks all...I get too fired up sometimes (maybe too often) but this hearing is so important.

14. Comcast recently changed a bunch of channels around

So it's probably not gone. It may just be on a different channel.

15. I'm having monumental difficulty with my internet connection AND...

I've been hung up on twice by my cable company in my attempt to find out what is causing the intermittent outages.

They won't tell me what the problem is and as they always do, they put the problem inside my home. I persisted in wanting to know why my connection sucks this morning and THEY WON'T TELL ME A THING!!!

16. For what its worth, Cablevision is one of the most Democratic leaning companies around

their general counsel went to law school with Obama and is heavily involved with the campaign. Their PAC has given to Democrats over repubs by an 89/11 margin -- a onesided margin that is very unusual among corporate pacs.
