[Electronics-talk] audio described TV programming

[cbandmantracker]

I have come to find out that most of your CBS stations to carry the SAP on 
Tuesday, Wendsday, and Thursday during prime time and on FoX Sunday during 
Prime time as well I agree with the person noting that PBS does not carry 
the SAp. However the SAP on PBS is still carried on the Bay area channel 9 
San Francisco.
