What NBC? (call sign, city/zip code).

There is not one feed to the whole country as there are many local affiliate stations with their own broadcast.

If it is not just DirecTV having the issue, then the problem is with your local station.

Technically it is one feed that NBC/ABC/CBS stations in New York and LA,Ca sends to the affiliate stations that rebroadcast it and adds local programing.

Sorry that's what I meant. Each local affiliate has their own feed to their area with the customized local stations.

So saying NBC has bad reception, not just on DirecTV, only says that the issue is the feed from the local affiliate.

Likely the Nevada and California feed share the same owner. The point is that it is not a nationwide issue. Not impossible the two feeds are separate, but it is not the entire country of NBC.

What is your zip code? That will verify your local affiliate station, regardless of what is happening in Nevada.
