    You Can Help! Add 3ABN to Dish

    PBS Beg-A-Thons Wait a minute. Asking people to request 3ABN on Dish Network is not anything like a PBS Beg-A-Thon for $$$$. Why a comment and comparison like that?? I would love to see 3ABN on Dish Network -- and so would others who miss seeing the doctors giving health lectures, vegan...

    International Services Moving to 118.7 Orbital Slot - DELAYED

    well now the +Dishes are available in my area. if i just would have waited until July 5th instead of trying on July 3. on a second note, the CS rep said i'd get a 1000+ Dish when i clearly told him i only wanted one int'l channel. i said i thought i'd get a 500+ not 1000+ -that the 1000+ is...
