    Why is the Dish advertising so awful?

    It looks like they do their advertising in-house as opposed to hiring a professional ad agency. Probably saves them a lot of money, but it sure does make them look cheap.

    Anyone enjoying the World Fishing Channel?

    Definitely not. Reminds me of cheap, local, cable access programming.

    Bryant Gumbel is out at NFL Network

    Excellent. Glad to see that smug a-hole booted. Wouldn't mind if they replaced Collingsworth too.

    New HD Channels Are On

    Ok, IF I decided to go back to D*, which I may do if AT&T buys E*, will my old AT-9 dish be all I need?

    Congrats, Tommy. Wish it had been done in a Braves uniform.

    Moffett Mocks DirecTV's HDTV Claims

    I think that's why I appreciate E*'s "all action no words" approach so much.

    HD Channels and quality

    There should be 6 or so more channels added this year. I'd upgrade now but I like several of the current HD channels they offer.

    Atlanta HD Locals Pixelation

    Whatever the problem was, it seems to have been fixed. I have not had many problems this week.

    EchoStar: 6 More HDTV Channels In 2007

    Agreed. I'd hate to lose Rave or Monsters HD just to get CNN HD.

    Atlanta HD Locals Pixelation

    I receive my locals both OTA and through Dish (thanks to Dish not offering program info w/out purchasing the locals). I have not noticed these issues OTA, only from 129.

    Sun Sports HD and SportSouth HD

    I have watched a few Braves games on SportsSouth. Nice PQ, but they need to show more.

    How can E* keep adding HD?

    At least that's what Captain Kirk and the scientist from Back to The Future say. So far it's been a lot of TV commercials and no action from D*. That's why I left them last year. :eureka

    XM or Sirius????

    I'll be surprised if the merger goes through. It should, but politics and heavy lobbying by the National Association of Broadcasters are screwing things up. I've heard both XM and Sirius and definitely prefer Sirius. But that's just me.
