    Can I have just the HD package and nothing else?

    Dish Network does not advertise it, but you can get an HD only package from them. The catch is you have to purchase a Dish HD reciever (they will not offer the HD only package to customers who lease equipment). So you can buy a DishNetwork HD receiver and have someone locally install it, then...

    E* questions

    FYI - When you buy the sports pack for the extra $5.99 to get all the RSN's, but only your local RSN's will show pro sporting events live. The other RSN's that are not local to you will be subject to Black Out rules for live pro sporting events, but many of those RSN's replay the games on...

    Any deals for those already with HD platnium

    yep, they already have you in the sucker catagory and count on your $105 bucks every month, no way they are giving you any of that back, LOL!!!!!! They will probably send you an occasional free PPV movie coupon to lure you into spending more money each month, that's if you are not...

    Yes Network and MSG

    When i lived in Northeastern Pa (Scranton area), 18 months ago i had MSG and FSNY as my RSN's and i did get Rangers hocky and Knicks basketbAll on MSG, and NY Mets Baseball on FSNY. So unless they changed policy in the past 18 months you should receive them. P.S. - Most of NorthEastern...

    Great To Have Voom Again But Only 1/2??

    It is really more like a Voom14 that we have. Majestic and GuyTV are now showing 4-6 differant movies a day instead of just 2/day like the old voom. Also they are rotating movies from the other 8 Voom HD theme channels into these two Cinema channels they are carrying. So it is like we are...

    VOOM-21 to have long life!

    Yes there is!!!! Just tune to their HiDef demo channel (Ch 9443, You need a 61.5 Sat dish to get it, but you need that dish to get the voom channels anyway) they show it most nights. My kitty rates it at 4 mousies, vs the 5 mousies rating she gave the TANK series on VOOM MOOV!!!!!

    Are You Vooming Again On Dish Yet?

    Even though Dish is only carrying 2 of the original 10 Voom Movie channels (Guy TV and Majestic) it looks like the format has changed. Instead of each channel only playing two repeating movies a day, theay each are showing 4 to 6 movies a day and it looks like the movies are a mix of all the 10...
