DISH Denver Channels: We Want Them Back

The Federal Communications Commission and Duhamel Broadcasting of Rapid City, SD or its successors are discriminating against Sheridan County, Wyoming by declaring Sheridan County to be part of Duhamel's South Dakota Designated Market Area (DMA). As such, Sheridan County is banned from receiving Denver's ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox "locals" channels. Currently, DISH gives us KOTA (ABC) and KVEN (Fox) from Rapid City and KELO (CBS) from Sioux Falls, SD (transmitted via KCLO Rapid City). KELO/KCLO uses the Central Time Zone for its programming. We do not get NBC from any source. In addition, Sheridan County DISH subscribers are unable to receive Wyoming Public Television and, instead only get PBS from Sioux Falls, SD. DISH blocks Denver sports (Broncos, Rockies, Nuggets, Avalanche plus UC and CSU) and Denver News from Isolated Sheridan County (see map), while Campbell County and Johnson County both receive the "Denver locals." We have no issue with Sheridan County being Rapid city's DMA. We just want our Denver channels back. Sign this petition and it will be presented to the Sheridan County Board of Supervisors who can then petition the FCC for modification under the FCC’s Satellite Television Extension and Localism Act of 2014 (STELAR) Market Modification Act Reauthorization Authority.

We want our programming back!! I have called dish on this matter several times only to be told to go and buy an antenna. I live in a remote area where an antenna DOES NOT work. If we do not get our channels back we will switch to another provider. We want NBC and our Denver channels back. We pay $173.33/monthly and don't get what we want.

I will drop dish and get Direct TV if this is not fixed. I am a big Bronco fan and if I can't see the Broncos I will switch to DirecTV

I support this petition to change local from SD to Either Denver or Wyoming stations. SD public TV is awful - you can tell it is a low budget mess, and has few of the shows Wyoming public television has.

The reason that this problem is so unfair is that we have little choice as we cannot get cable, DSL or fiber optics because of our location. I have tried the competing satellite company and had poor service with it as well. We need freedom of choice!

Not only do i want the denver locals back I have a big problem with being put into the Rapid City/Sioux Falls DMA. Northern Wyoming does not have much in common with this area and would be much better served from CASPER or Billings.
