Cable & Satellite Availability
Since November 2010, WBOC and Fox21 have been available on DirecTV and Dish Network in the Delmarva counties of Wicomico, Somerset, Worcester, and Dorchester in Maryland and Sussex County in Delaware. For WBOC viewers outside the 5 Delmarva counties, satellite subscribers may request a waiver to receive New York City stations if they can't pick up the Delmarva stations over the air.
During the CATV era of the 1970s and 1980s, WBOC was once carried virtually through the entire Delmarva Peninsula from New Castle County, Delaware to Northampton County, Virginia. WBOC was also once carried in Cape May County, New Jersey.

Famous quotes containing the words cable, satellite and/or availability:
“To be where little cable cars climb halfway to the stars.”
—Douglass Cross (b. 1920)
“Books are the best things, well used; abused, among the worst. What is the right use? What is the one end, which all means go to effect? They are for nothing but to inspire. I had better never see a book, than to be warped by its attraction clean out of my own orbit, and made a satellite instead of a system.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Since ... six weeks ago, there has been no day in which I have not had letters and visits on the subject of my nomination for the Presidency.... I say very little. I have in no instance encouraged any one to work to that end.... I have said the whole talk about me is on the score of availability. Let availability do the work then.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
