ABC Cedar Rapids is out
- Thread starter Colonel Homer
- Start date
I'm at my in-laws and they have dish network. Is there an alt channel the osu-um game would be on? This is frustrating as fuq.
Ahh I see. Sorry, I tend to blame all of life's problems on Mediacom.
KCRG on their FB page about an hour ago said that they found the technical issue affecting their signal and should have it back up as soon as possible.. So it sounds like Mediacom and their outage handling lol
It's channel 9 locally that's down, other markets should be fine. OTA, and apparently the individual feeds too. That means it's a common to all providers issue no matter who it's fed out to.
I'm DTV - so I can use WatchESPN with my PC using my DTV login and password and am watching it now. Just go to the WatchESPN site and choose your provider if applicable.

We have "rabbit ears" and we are close to CR and it says "scrambled". Luckily I'm streaming EPSN from the Xbox One.
out in Iowa City as well. Contacted Mediacom customer service, and after their initial "we show no service interruptions in your area", spend an hour waiting for live service chat, to have them same "we do have an interruption in your area" and the famous "we understand your problem and are sorry for it"...
Go to WatchESPN on the main menu and plug in your cable provider when asked. You can watch any game on the ESPN networks, just like from your computer.
I wonder in this day and age what could cause a signal loss to take this long to fix. I remember before cable that stations would go out for various reasons, but it's been a long time since I've seen one out for this long.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — A mechanical issue which arose around 8:30 a.m. Saturday knocked out KCRG-TV9’s over the air signal.
Station engineers have identified the problem and are working to resume transmission, which is a process involving multiple integrated systems.
Some cable and satellite customers have said they can watch the Ohio State v. Michigan football game scheduled to air Saturday through the ESPN app or website.
KCRG-TV9 staff are working with Mediacom and DirecTV to pass through a signal from another ABC affiliate to customers as an interim solution. A similar request sent to DISH had not received a reply as of 1 p.m.
Our engineers continue to work on the root problem without risking further damage to broadcast operations.
We apologize for the inconvenience and will have the signal restored as soon as possible.
