  1. My city Los Angeles were first people that got the channel on Univision sub channel 46.2 it is awsome

  2. Since I do live in Los Angeles area
    I get following channel
    METV Antenna TV THIS TV Retro TV Bounce tv
    Movies tv network and now new Gettv

    • That’s great! Where I live I can only pick up the local ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX affiliates, along with MeTV and This TV.

  3. I think eventually you get all those channel just launh here in SO CAL we really don’t get METV until six month later after it was launch nationwide THIS TV also

    Antenna TV Movies TV and GETTV are only network that we were launch originally here

    • Unfortunately I’m in a small market, so it doesn’t look very promising. If I were in the Philly area, I would get all the diginets. I’m waiting on our CBS affiliate to do something, as they have never had any subchannels. The NBC affiliate here runs MeTV, the ABC affiliate airs This TV.

  4. I think if you live in big market you get the channel I hear it slowly coming other places I keep looking over their channel availbty they adding more almost other week
