Universal Sports missing from WVIT DT-3
- Thread starter DJKraze
- Start date
I got home at 12:45AM Sunday Morning (Saturday Night and it was already gone. Note the on-screen guide said Off Air beginning at 12AM Sunday Morning).
On Channel 295 on COMCAST it's just a blank screen.
On Channel 803 on COX on the screen it says that WVIT will no longer be broadcasting Universal Sports as of December 31, 2011.

I mention it as having been "already gone" as this information was not new and it was slated to be removed from ALL subchanel OTA and moved to cable and sat only (this apparently so far only means DirecTV) as of 1/2/12, but it was apparently done much sooner. I also have grapevine information that says WVIT does not have plans to replace it with anything at sub position 3 anhy time soon.

Same with WNBC on Cablevision 119
What was the intention of the Universal Sports Network? I occasionally would tune in and see what appeared to be old Olympics highlights. There never seemed to be any rhyme or reason to what was airing at any given time. It never seemed like a network that would have any mass appeal. I would have a hard time believing it could be successful as a standalone cable network.
