    Unreferenced auto yes date December 2009 Carolinas Sports Entertainment Television , or C SET, was a regional sports network in the United States that was in operation from October 2004 until June 2005.

In 2005 , the Bobcats moved their local cable broadcasts to News 14 Carolina , another complicated and limiting deal which cut out viewers in South Carolina and outside of the Charlotte area who did not have Time Warner as a cable provider.
