I get FXX on channel 125 on dish satellite and I assure you there are no local commercials on that transponder. It is national feed only. Cable might be different but satellite is national. It is not even time shifted. I get east coast targeted prime-time programming 3 hours early. Same with CNN on channel 200 and FOX news on 205. I get local commercials on 3, 6, 12 and 24 (local channels) only but these are not national feeds although they use national feeds for broadcast. I get ABC, NBC, CBS and FOX time delayed from east coast time.
You seem to be receiving a satellite feed. That is entirely different from what the majority of Americans receive, correct?
I’m also talking about FX, not FXX.
The difference is probably not an issue, but my previous post still outlines what I believe I am seeing vs what you are seeing.
Satellite feeds are significantly different from cable feeds that originate from the same source but are managed differently. I’ve seen the difference in the past when I was able to sample a strict satellite feed vs the cable/local variety.
I understand what you imply, but I differ in the opinion of the ultimate outcome of what is observed in local markets.
