Is your source for the printed version of USA Today, or do you have some other feed?

@JefferMC U-Verse (AT&T at that point?) changed the channel notification system a while back. USA Today is out of the picture.

Here's how to get them:

1) Press the blue button at the bottom of your remote.

2) Select "channel notices".

From here, the two most important menus are "Additional Changes" and "Channels Newly Noticed".

For a very long time, USA Today would have them on the third Tuesday of each month. On rare occasion, they'd be a few days earlier or later. AT&T also had a website which has since been discontinued. This is where I'd copy them from and I believe TexasGuy37 also did the same thing before me.

In recent months, the on-screen option doesn't seem to update with as much regularity/predicability as USA Today and the AT&T website did, but I did notice that the July updates were released on...the third Tuesday of July. Maybe there's hope.
