Can someone explain to me wy I am not able to get NCAA Men's tourney on my
High Def channel (#80)?

I get my feed from NY, although I am in the Philly area.

All other HD channels working fine.

In my area, DirecTV had a problem on CBS West (ch 81) for a couple of
hours yesterday, and I got the "not authorized in your area" screen.
Other than that, CBS HD coverage of the tourney is great. In fact, I
think CBS deserves a gold star for the quality of the HD feeds. Some
HD is just so-so, but their work so far has been beautiful -- as high
resolution as I've even seen on HD.

In Philadelphia Friday night we had the Vermont-Syracuse game in HD on
the Phila CBS HD channel and the Duke game in SD on the regular Phila
CBS channel. Don't know if CBS Phila tried to offer two games or just
no HD feed from Charlotte. As usual neither CBS Phila or Comcast
offered a heads up. We just happened to switch to the SD channel since
we couldn't get the Duke game on HD.

Are you in the LA Market? What is your local market?

Are you getting HD over the air? Mine is not over the air due to the
distance from Philly. I get my HD feeds from New York broadcast over the
satellite.
