Arguably the biggest game yet of the season for UAB and while we know WABM-MyTV 68 is carrying it, you wouldn't know by looking at the on-screen guide, which lists:

2 PM - The Closer
3 PM - Mike & Molly
3:30 - Mike & Molly

So good luck trying to coherently record it if you've got Charter. I thought once we got into Conference play they would be past this, but I guess I thought wrong. I just hope they get the kinks worked out before Football Season next year!

Set it up to record all three shows?

Yep, definitely a Charter screwup...U-verse has it correct on the guide.

The coaches' tv show the last few years wouldn't have the correct heading on abc 33/40.

What channel is it on UVerse? I'm having trouble locating it.

Does anyone know of a website it's on. Myself like most of the country does not get that hack network.

It is showing up as an option in Russia.

Watching it on 68 myself.

Have a birthday party for my father-in-law in an hour. He is 88.

I had the game available on four stations at my house (I recorded it) and had friends in the rest of the country watching it and texting me they saw me on TV from Texas to Washington State. I'm thankful to have that network and it's coverage.

I'm glad you're thankful. And I'm happy your friends in Texas and Washington got to see it. It still doesn't change the fact that it is not seen in the majority of the country, and it is a stupid stipulation that the game is not streamed on AllAccess when it is being televised on that station.

I have no problem with not being able to get the station. I just want to watch the game online when I am paying for All-Access.

Then I suggest you ask the athletic department why you cannot stream it. I would be interested in seeing their response. I see less complaining about this network than I did CSS and quite frankly most of it is from you. Yea I know a few others but there is a lot less.

You're right! I have a couple episodes on my DVR from 9/6/14 and 9/13/14 that are incorrectly-listed as "Auburn Football Everyday" instead of Blazers All-Access. BTW, that comes back this weekend, right? (Hmmm, checking my on-screen guide, I guess it does not, but we can't really go by that, now can we?)

I get to see nearly every televised UAB game with DISH Network through the multi-sport package.

Anyone here who wants to make the switch, let me know and I'll get you referrals!

I am in the same situation as MB. It's very annoying. Our games have been listed on the ASN website as the primary game that would be available on local channels in the Charlotte area, and then none of those local channels are ever picked up by my cable provider. The one time I did have the specific channel listed on the ASN website, it was playing reruns of Hogan's Heroes. Not sure if it's an issue with ASN or my cable provider, but it sucks either way. I also pay for all access, and have only been able to watch one game on it so far. I have been able to listen to several radio broadcasts, which are cool, but I think you can get those without having to pay for all access (I may be mistaken on that?).

I totally agree with MB. I'm glad some network, crappy or not, picks up a lot of our games. However, the people who can't pick that network up in their viewing area shouldn't be punished by not being able to view the game on All Access, which we pay for.

How can we contact the athletic department about this?

Radio broadcasts can be heard online via the flagship station.

Last year I was told that it was in the contract that the conference negotiated with ASN that in ASN games, ASN has streaming rights. The problem is that ASN doesn't or no longer streams their games.

This isn't a UAB problem. Its CUSA.

They do stream some of their games, but only a selected or primary game each night, I believe. I've seen it listed on their website. I don't believe any of our games have been the game that's been chosen for streaming thus far this season.
