In total Gray Television owns 36 CBS affiliates around the United States yet we can only confirm a few have been added. Recently DIRECTV NOW has not been waiting to add every affiliate at once from a company but adding them as they are ready. Among the CBS affiliates that are added is KWCH in Hutchinson, Kansas and WDBJ in Roanoke.
Update: We can also confirm that NBC WYFF in Greenville, SC is live on DIRECTV NOW. WYFF is owned by Hearst Television.
Update #2: We are now hearing that Raycom Media owned CBS affiliates are going live.
Update #3: We are also hearing Sinclair owned FOX affiliates are going live on DIRECTV NOW.
Lockwood Broadcast TV owns 4 ABC affiliates in in Kansas including Wichita, Colby, Garden City, and Ada Oklahoma. It is very likely that all of their affiliates will soon be live on DIRECTV NOW.
