Starting Oct. 1, the Blackhawks, Bulls and White Sox have a new TV home — but some in Chicago won’t be able to see it. Here’s what to know about Chicago Sports Network. So what’s happening — and why now?

Eight months after launching, the Chicago Sports Network will finally hit the airwaves on Comcast, but it’s going to cost subscribers more to watch the White Sox, Bulls and Blackhawks.

The channel is available on Xfinity's Ultimate programming tier on Channel 200, the same spot that the teams' former home, NBC Sports Chicago, occupied before being shut down Sept. 30.
