Tigo (formerly Amnet) always had the CBS network but it seems to be missing. I have the digital box and it was always on channel 186 with ABC and NBC on 185 and 187. CBS carries the NFL in English so yesterday I noticed that the replaced it with some movie channel. CBS also carries a lot of College games.

Does anyone have any info on this? (Irish where are you?)

Tigo on Friday claimed that the distributor was switching the feed from a Puerto Rico station to a Miami station and during the transition CBS would not be available. On Monday they said the problem was with the satellite.

Finally on Monday night CBS, from Miami, appeared. I do mean appeared as there is video but no audio. :lol: Hopefully sometime today we will have CBS with both a picture and sound.

The saving grace in this fiasco is we seem to be getting rid of that annoying Caribbean station complete with Joey and his parrot.

NOOO por favor, not Joey.Can we pay extra and keep the parrot?

As usual ID ir right on. I just checked out the channel and the CBS feed is there `without sound. That is the status of ESPN on channel 304 (picture but no sound.)

I have CableTica in Barrio Amon and it also just switched to the Miami CBS station (no sound problems). That parrot schtick was so lame. That dude should only be allowed to work K*ds shows (6 and under)
