    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    From a business standpoint, does that make any sense? How many subs actually have a dish pointed at 148? I understand that only a fraction of the total sub base will be ordering this fight, but still, the percentage of these subs who have a dish looking at 148 must be slim... Scott...

    Fatty Mike Tyson fights, off his meds?

    The entire card has 9 bouts..... This tells me that the main event will last at a maximum of 3 rounds.

    Dish network south of the border

    I am in Cancun Mexico nearly year round, and I pay my bill as always via CC-Autopay. I do not believe that Dish would allow you to *move* out of the country, so don't ask. Just bring your receiver with you and hook her up on board. The 1.8 mt dish you have should work for 119, 61.5, and perhaps...

    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    All personal opinions aside, does anyone have an answer for my question? I could care less what he has done in his life, his mistakes, his idiocy, the man may be crazy and have poor verbal skills, but he does know how to sell himself. He may never be considered one the best ever, but he puts...

    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    I called Dish, 5 times, speaking with 5 different CSRs, each one told me it 'might' be available on 110, one even told me they may add an HD channel in the 450 range to show the fight on HD. Does anyone know for sure? Thanks

    Tyson fight in HD only on 148?

    On Dish's PPV ordering page it lists the HD broadcast to be on 148, channel 9428. Will it also be shown from 110, on the HD events or HD PPV channel? Thanks

    Service in Mexico?

    The 10 footer (3.1 Meter) dish I use for 110 W is a BUD dish, the downfall is that they do not make a dual ku lnd mount for this type of dish. The 3 and 4 foot dishes in Mexico should go for around $200 to $280 USD, if you pay more than that you are getting the 'gringo' price :) In Mexico...

    Service in Mexico?

    I am located in Cancun Mexico near 10 months out of the year, I have 3 dishes ranging in size from 3 feet to 10 feet. In Mexico City you can use a 3 footer for most of the programing, for the 110 sat you will need around a 7 footer. The 3 foot dish should not cost you more than $250, and there...

    To HD or Not??

    I have a 60" LG RPLCD in the living room, the HD channels are amazing, I find myself watching things I would NEVER watch in SD. The SD channels look a little 'Blury' for lack of a better word, due to the size of the screen, but as Simon said above, overall I am happy with the PQ...
