DirecTV is a direct broadcast satellite service based in El Segundo, California, which transmits digital satellite television and audio to households in the United States. Its primary competitors are Dish Network and cable providers. DirectTV currently has 18 million subscribers. The service was launched on June 17, 1994 and is now owned by The DirecTV Group, which is controlled by Liberty Media.

The following is a list of broadcast stations that are carried by Direct TV. These include affiliates of ABC, Azteca America, CBS, The CW, Fox, Ion, MyNetworkTV, NBC, PBS, Telefutura, Telemundo, and Univision, as well as local independent stations. However, not all of these network services are available in every market. Instead, for eligible viewers, DirecTV offers ABC, CBS, Fox, and NBC stations from New York City and Los Angeles, CW stations from Washington, D.C. and San Diego, and a national PBS feed. National feeds of Ion, Telefutura, Telemundo, and Univision are also available for viewers without additional charge, while Azteca America’s national feed is only available through DirecTV Spanish-language tier. In lieu of its local stations, the Trinity Broadcasting Network offers its national feed instead. DirecTV’s Local Channels package is available for $5.99 per month.
