Default Yankees Fan moving to Easton

Best bet would be to et a satellite dish for your TV. With FCC laws ther have been problems getting certain team covereages. For example, when I first moved to Easton from Long Island we got all Giants, Jets and Eagles games. Now we get only all Giants and Eagles games and a few Jets games. I complained to the cable companies but they claime it is out of their hands. That is why I have Jets season tix. Even though Easton is closer to NYC than parts of Long Island, the NY Jets represent LI, therefor they are rarely shown here (Hopefully that will change when the Jets move their training facility to New Jersey) . This area is border on Eagles/Giants, therefor you can receive all games of both teams.
As for baseball, this is pretty much phillies zone. although satellite TV sucks if you want all the games, you probably have to get a dish.

I did originally get Directv with the sports pack that contained Yes network.What was happening is a lot of the games were blacked out.So I got extra innings and that solved the problem.

Yes, the AAA-affiliate of the NY Yankees plays out of PNC Field in Scranton. It's not that far of a drive from the Lehigh Valley if someone wanted to take a jaunt up I-476 to take in a game and perhaps turn it into a day-trip (Coal Mine Tour, Anthracite Heritage Museum, Trolley Museum, Houdini Museum, Iron Furnaces, Nay Aug Park, Steamtown National Historic Site, Historic Iron Furnaces, etc.)

Default Angels fan here

Ok, I am moving to the Cambria County area, small town, how do I go about getting the Angels games. I don't care what it costs or what I have to do or install, cannot live without my Angels. My two yorkies are named after my fave players and even have their own regulation hats, batting helmets, custom shirts and bandannas and regulation shirts, I am that much of a fan. Will Dish do it or Satellite with the the MLB package?

My cousins live in palmer twp. easton area. It is a very nice neighborhood and upscale compared to the rest of Easton. As for yankees fans I am not sure.
