    EPIX to feature live boxing in March!

    Great news for boxing fans! Hopefully it will not only be for the fights that HBO/Showtime/ESPN have no interest in carrying. Although the Klitschko brothers are the top heavyweight title holders in the "world of boxing" they haven't been televised live on the big networks in a very long time...

    OK who has been a E sub the longest?

    I think it was October of 1996. Had a 3000 and a 2700 if I remember correctly. Had the top programming package with all the premiums at the time, with the East and West coast feeds which was the BEST! Switched over from Direct since Dish was the only one that carried the international channels...

    Gold HD vs. Platinum HD??

    I just got rid of my xtra $10 for platinum HD. Easier than i thought through chat! Just told them that I don't understand why I was paying for something that many other customers were not. The rep said "let me check with my supervisor". 2 minutes later she came back and said that they will keep...

    I'm on 61.5 (east coast, pa), and this has happened to me since last fall. Always thought it had something to with the provider itself to DISH.

    Can u watch the inauguration at work?

    +1 Through all of the HYPE, most of America (and maybe the world) actually believe that this guy is the messiah. Funny how Nostradamus never mentioned him. :rolleyes: Besides he's a politician like all others in Washington, except he has the excuse of not being in Washington that long. With...

    HD locals for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, PA timeframe??

    About Time!!! Happy to see these channels FINALLY up! I still don't understand the stupidity of DISH for not figuring something out to be able to broadcast all of these channels to ALL folks that live in the DMA. Really makes you think....how they run their company :confused: I FEEL YOUR...

    HD locals for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, PA timeframe??

    I'm hoping that Dish can't get WBRE & WYOU on NOW because there is an exclusive with Direct until the end of year. Maybe comes January we'll all be much happier. Wallet-- you're right on the mark!

    Poll, Do you have your NEW smartcards yet?

    Finally got my cards today for my two 622's. My newer one took me less than 10 minutes, the older one about 30 minutes, mostly waiting while it downloaded the guide. Maybe the hard drive is beginning to ask for help? :( Overall it was easy...

    HD locals for Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, PA timeframe??

    As anyone noticed that the SD of FOX, CBS, and WBRE are a little better or is it to the point that I'm imagining better quality??? I just started noticing it this week. Any ideas?

    DISH NETWORK® UNVEILS BIGGEST HIGH DEFINITION UPGRADE IN TV HISTORY

    All right....more software upgrades to possibly give us headaches. Let's see how long it takes for everyone to start complaining that there isn't much programming being broadcast at 1080p. By the way, this is great new for those who have 1080p sets but I surely am not going to spend my money...
