I can tell you who streamed what last year, and make an educated guess for this year:
2021
DirtVision: Williams Grove
Flo: Lincoln, Port Royal, Grandview
Sprint Car Unlimited TV: BAPS, Hagerstown, Selinsgrove
2022:
DirtVision: Williams Grove
Flo: Lincoln, Port Royal
Sprint Car Unlimited TV: BAPS, Hagerstown, Selinsgrove, Grandview
BAPS, Hagerstown, Selinsgrove and Grandview are not on Flo's schedule currently for this year, only Lincoln and Port Royal show on it now. Last year, Bob had an issue with FloRacing during an All Star show where the 358 modifieds accompanied. Flo wouldn't pay extra for that support class streaming right so they were only able to air the All Stars. Fans at home weren't happy. So, my educated guess is Bob will go with Sprint Car Unlimited TV this year with a deal that will allow both classes to be shown. Unfortunately, with four shows on Sprint Car Unlimited, you'll likely pay close to half a year's subscription for FloRacing for the same cost as four PPVs, but at least those that can't make it there have the option.

Thanks for the info! Moved from Knoxville to Jackson, CA, last year. So, we don't go to races in person anymore, due to health reasons. My wife and I really got interested in the races from PA, when we couldn't go in person anymore. Met Macri in Knoxville, a few years ago, nice young man. We also like Lance DeWease, Brent Marks, Freddie Rahmer, Logan Wagner, and of coarse Anthony Macri. And, many more. But, we are close to our children, and grandchildren. So we are happy to watch races from our home. Bob Wagner

6 of 9 races at 3 different tracks. Dumb.

That I agree with. Each track should only have one date for speedweeks.

If you could outline 7 to 9 speedways in PA to host a speedweek, who would they be?
Also, figure in Hagerstown, a non-PA track, yes or no?
And Western PA speedweek including Sharon OH track?
I'm in favor of including them adding to the legacy & track options.

I think PA Speedweek should be 8 or 9 diff tracks 1 race per track, there are plenty to chose from, including Hagerstown is fine only 7-8 miles from PA IMO. Port, Grove, Lincoln, Susky, Grandview, Haggerstown, Sellingsgrove, Path Valley. If 8 is too many drop Haggerstown is fine.
Western PA including Sharon makes sense due to most Western PA teams run there alot anyways.
Ohio should also be 7 or 8 diff tracks 1 race per track the 2nd Fremont date should obviously be an Eldora date.

Well we already have 6 tracks that have them. Cut speedweek to 7 races. 10 races in 10 days is too much for the teams. There wagons are dragging at the end of this week. 7 races in 7 days is bad enough for these teams that run all of them. NO on Hagerstown being a part of PA speedweek.
Lincoln
Williamsgrove
Grandview
Port Royal
Selinsgrove
Baps/Susky
We only need to add one more track.
Maybe - Path Valley or Bedford

I only have one comment on PA Speedweek. Look at the crowds over the years at Lincoln on Monday, Port Royal on Wednesday, and Hagerstown on Thursday, and look at them in a few weeks. Those dates aren't going to anyone else. Two years ago Hagerstown risked life and limb and basically fought the law to hold that show, it was worth it for them to risk it during the start of COVID. 2021 was rained out.

A proper Speedweek is 7 races at 7 tracks in 7 days. Not 6, not 8, and certainly not 9. SEVEN. And if you have some silly Mickey Mouse 1 or 2 day break in the middle of your 'Speedweek' it ceases to be a Speedweek and is merely a couple of long weekends of racing. Get TF outta here with that nonsense. I'm looking at you USAC.

I like Hagerstown but last time I was there for a SW show, it was the smallest SW crowd I've ever seen.
