TV problem in Middle Georgia

Our local station, WMAZ in Macon, is in a dispute with Dish and is not being televised. Does anyone have any suggestion as to how we can watch the game other than a bar/club?
Thanks for any suggestions you can provide.

cbsports.com always shows the 330 CBS game online.

Most of the streaming services (HuluLive, YoutubeTV, Sling, etc) offer a 7 day free trial. Just do that and make sure to cancel before the trial ends and you’ll be good.

If you have amazon prime you can add the Paramount plus channel on a free trial as an option as well.

Flip your input to good old fashioned TV and watch over the air. Better HD pic quality than dish. If needed you can get an HD antenna at Walmart for $20. Just did this so I could keep Ryder cup on 1 TV and games on the other.

Paramount plus has cbs live, free trials if Hulu live tv, fubo, YouTube tv ect

I was obviously joking with giving directions to the stadium, but honestly, buying an HD antenna is 100% your best bet. Will get great quality and can always have it when satellite is down.

Order drone strike to all offending parties, but be smart about it and only hit the gameday depriving terrorists.

I would use a vpn so your ip provider doesn’t throttle
If using a mobile device, you can mirror to a smart tv or if you don’t have a smart tv, you can buy this: LINK
....or just flip your TV to antenna and watch highest quality HD for free without the need of an IT guy.
My old arse has no idea what you just said up there

I had not thought of that but a trip to the dish guide shows SMU/Navy on that channel.

IT dawg. It’s not you. It’s me…

13WMAZ always does. It sucks so much. Dish plays hard ball too, Bally Sports etc.
BUT antennas are cheap. Aim it towards SE Macon/jeffersonville and watch in HD for free.
FWIW, Streams are always delayed. If you like watching and following along with game threads or Twitter, you’re gonna have a bad time. An antenna is as close to live as Cable/Satellite or Better.
I hate the delays on our ESPN games.

You really need to do the free 2 week youtube tv trial. I can almost gurantee that you will dump Dish or whatever after that. Takes about 45 seconds to sign up
You 'll get all your local channels and every single other channel that it's possible for a football game to be broadcast on. (except for pac 12 network, boo hoo)
I was actually paying around $85 bucks more /month before I switched and I wasn't even getting ESPN U, ESPN News, ACC network, and others
The best part is that come January after Georgia wins the national championship and the season is over, I can just cancel youtube tv because I won't need any of the espns until next September. I'll just get a basic $35 Sling package for the Saul finale and watching golf

ANother cool thing on youtube tv is you can customize your channel list.
I just fine tuned mine for Saturday so that all channels of the games I'm interested in are in sequence at the top of my channel guide. Making it a two-click switch between facemelters. I also deleted CNN, MSNBC, and all the other communist propaganda channels and about 20 others I have no use for. SO now I don't even have to pass through them on the channel guide. They literally no longer exist. Feels good

Does youtube tv carry bally sports now? I dumped it last year because they didn't have that channel.
