What's this?

Question for YouTubeTV subscribers...

... when you watch live sports, any idea how far behind the action the stream lags?

Looks like I'm going to have to go the YouTubeTV route to get the ACCN, until DISH gets their butt in gear, and I'm wondering what kind of lag I'm going to have to deal with.

And no, I don't want to switch to DirecTV or Shentel.

Around 30 seconds or so for me ** -- GoobyPls 08/21/2019 11:05PM

So I'm watching WSLS news, they have a clock on screen. Looks like 20 -- UTPr0sim 08/21/2019 5:18PM

I would guess it is about 10-30 sec behind the broadcast TV feed ** -- Nelsonia Hokie 08/21/2019 2:33PM

Why wouldn't you switch to Direct TV? ** -- darnellm 08/21/2019 12:27PM

I don't like their interface, and I don't want to go through the hassle. -- Will Stewart

For me is anywhere from 10 secs to a minute ish. -- Angry Birds 08/21/2019 12:22PM

End-user speed/setup isn't the primary constraint --- it's the delivery. -- HWA 08/21/2019 12:35PM

Can’t speak for YouTube but I use PS Vue -- MBHokie90 08/21/2019 12:21PM

For me, it's a couple of hours -- Tafkam Hokie 08/21/2019 12:16PM

If I can find my old HDTV antenna, I will do an experiment and report back. ** -- NokieHokie 08/21/2019 12:04PM

Better yet, just tune into Jon & Mike's coverage of the game. ** -- EDGEMAN 08/21/2019 12:52PM

The point is to compare YouTubeTV to regular TV, not radio... ** -- NokieHokie 08/21/2019 1:24PM

Will probably be my ultimate action. -- TomTurkey 08/21/2019 1:21PM

Have you tried the local stations' FM mirror? Not sure how far they extend ** -- 48zip 08/21/2019 1:41PM

Appomattox FM and Richmond AM -- TomTurkey 08/21/2019 2:04PM

93.5 is the FM station in Richmond/Blackstone you can listen to games on. ** -- VTScanlo 08/21/2019 3:10PM

Not in my backyard. ** -- TomTurkey 08/21/2019 3:16PM

I think they're now on 105.1. No clue on the power. ** -- 48zip 08/21/2019 2:11PM

I'll check it out. Thnx. ** -- TomTurkey 08/21/2019 3:15PM

Were you mocking me? ** -- TomTurkey 08/21/2019 3:45PM

No I posted the 'rong station link. Not sure 910 has a mirror. ** -- 48zip 08/21/2019 5:20PM

J/k When the Hopewell AM station had VT, I got a station out of PA at night ** -- TomTurkey 08/21/2019 5:33PM

I find cable is usually anywhere between 5-20 seconds behind. ** -- EDGEMAN 08/21/2019 1:11PM

If it is like MLB.tv and WatchESPN, I would venture anywhere from 30 -- riosvt 08/21/2019 11:55AM
