CSN Philly is not available to satellite customers within the Philly area due to some crafty contractual wording on Comcast’s part (owner of CSN). By extension, any Phillies/Flyers/Sixers game aired exclusively on CSN Philly was blacked out, even if you had a league package. Since at the time Comcast had the only cable service in the region, you either had to get them or you were SOL.

This problem still exists to this day, but since the acquisition in of the network (formerly SportsChannel Philadelphia) in 1996, Verizon came along with Fios and CSN Philly is available through them.
