Xfinity Stream app not showing LiveTV channels, only TV GO channels

There is a post here in the forum which I copied my Subject line from.  I have almost an identical issue.  On my android phone the xfinity stream app shows my local channels just fine.  I van watch Chicago CBS channel 2, NBC channel 5, ABC channel 7, WGN channel 9.  The xfinity app on my 2025 LG TV only shows a few channels and NONE of my local channels.  CBS, NBC, ABC, WGN etc. Please help

Good evening @synwave7, and thank you for reaching out on our Community Forums with your Stream app issues. I see that you stated the app is not playing live channels on your LG TV. Are you experiencing any error codes or messages? May I also please confirm that the app is up-to-date?

@XfinityAlyssaA​ Yes, the app is up to date and there is no error.  The channels just aren't there to choose from.  CBS, ABC, Fox I dont see them at all to choose to watch.  The app seems to be working fine other than that.  So, again no error the channels just aren't there as an option.
