I was paying for Bloomberg TV al a carte so that I could receive Public Interest channels. I only watch maybe 4 channels. Bloomberg TV was removed and I am now getting charged $9.99 for Welcome Pack instead of what I was paying $7.99. Not a problem, because I am still getting the channels I...

I was receiving all of the PI channels listed in the above link. I have one DISH pointed at 61.5 and one DISH pointed at 110/119. As of yesterday I lost all PI channels except 3ABN-9710, NASA-213 and Angel-262 and a few others that I had blocked out. I called DISH network to see what I needed to...

I don't understand why SA couldn't have offered IPTV and Satellite service. ~MYB~

When I recently logged into my Dish Network account (I have Sky Angel only), I noticed things were changed. "My Programming" now has Dominion Sky Angel listed for "Current Programming". "My Equipment" now has receiver/smart card info listed. Looking at the Programming Guide on Dish Network's...

I hope this is true! I've never had a problem with any of DISH network's equipment or reception. I didn't have a problem with DISHfamily, I just didn't like the commercials and I had a lot of the channels blocked, so I stuck with Sky Angel only and blocked the "special secular" channels. ~MYB~

After receiving my letter I knew it was "official". I'll miss Sky Angel broadcasting, but our internet is just too unreliable for watching tv. Not to mention we have two DISH's one at 61.5 and the other at the 110/119. I don't mind paying as much (even more) as anyone else, it's just I don't...

I was thinking the same thing. You'd expect some of the channels & content from a secular family oriented company, but not from a Christian company. Unfortunately, I think our internet service is way too unreliable for IPTV anyway. Since Time Warner-Road Runner has taken over Adelphia we lose...

Just wanted to say I appreciate ALL of Iceberg's info. His satellite knowledge has always been helpful, and from what I have gathered, always accurate. He seems to know his stuff! ~MYB~

TOTALLY agree with jbmiller!!!!! ~MYB~

If the four special secular channels (Hallmark, Hallmark Movie Channel, HGTV, and Fox News) are costing Sky Angel, why don't they drop them altogether? Or at least drop them for those that don't wish to receive them. I don't like the change that Sky Angel has taken, but I tried DishFAMILY and I...

I didn't know if their might be a chance of FamilyLand being moved to a different channel since Spirit will be on 9717, I emailed Sky Angel the other day and still have not received a response. So, I emailed FamilyLand this morning and they replied back saying: "Yes, that's correct. Familyland...

I'm so glad Spirit is returning. I just wish they didn't have to get rid of FamilyLand. I'm not Catholic, but we watched a lot of their Westerns, Andy Griffith, I Love Lucy, Ozzie & Harriet, Bonanza, etc... It seemed to always be VERY family-orientated. I will miss that station. How do they...

Oh, I understand. That makes sense now. Thanks, once again! (Sorry, I'm so "clueless".) ~MYB~

Yeah, that's what I mean. It does not show up in my guide. Mine goes from 9707, 9708, 9709 then skips to 9711, 9712, 9714, etc... Should it be showing up in my guide, even though there's no channel right now? ~MYB~

I have PI channels & Sky Angel (& DISHFamily), but 9710 does not show up for me. Do you need FTA system to receive 9710? ~MYB~
