I remember when I first got Dish and ESPN News was added - I loved it because it had the completely different color scheme with the blue and how it was stats based on the ticker more than just stories. Had a different feel than the other ESPN's, and there was something about those different...

I was taking a look at the Dish website, and I wish they wouldn't advertise that they have NBC Sports Network...it makes it look like they have channel 159 again and subscribers could access things like the Peacock NBA or MLB games that are on NBCSN. Not the Bonus View channel. Maybe someone...

If this does change, I find that interesting because Dish's contract with Disney is up later this year. It would seem strange for any Disney owned channels to change packages now withouth a new contract. And if there was a new Dish/Disney contract, there would be a press release about it.

Is ESPN News changing packages? I see on the lineup card that ESPN News is only available in Top 200 and above now. Is this accurate? Did anyone with Top 120 or 120+ lose ESPN News? https://my.dish.com/cms-files/channelcards/2026/0512/Channel_Lineup.pdf

I went to my Dish Anywhere app, and it shows that the following channels aren't available in Dish Anywhere: BeIn Sports Network CBS Sports Network CNN Cooking Channel HGTV Modern Marvels by History Channel Not sure if anyone else is missing these as well on Dish Anywhere. The satellite...

Strange - shows up on the VIP211k with no problem, but not on Dish Anywhere - I can't stream it on Dish Anywhere and it says "No Information"

BuyTV is no longer on Dish. It was on channel 84, 283, and 9458.

Yeah, that is what it looks like they are going to do. Move all the national channels to 119, and they are lining up for a quick transponder switch.

After many months of next to nothing, there has been a lot of movement of channels on the 110 satellite. Dish is getting ready to do something... I am guessing it has something to do with the new satellite that has been launched...

Do you have the OTA adapter in the 722k? My 211k has an OTA adapter, and if the last tuned OTA channel is a weaker signal channel, I will sometimes get a complete signal loss on the satellite channel before it tunes to it.

And when Dish dropped a majority of the RSN's in 2019, there was still the exact same increases as the previous year. We weren't given any discounts or credits the rest of the year when we were no longer receiving the the RSN's. And Charlie said during one of the investor meetings that once the...

It is hard to believe, but it has been almost 7 years since Dish starting dropping the RSN's... But back in 2019 when Dish dropped the FOX Sports RSN's as the first big batch of drops, either Charlie or someone else at Dish specifically stated that Dish would like to be in the RSN business, but...

It is on CBS here in Chicago - we have it on at 6:30 central time on Weekdays. But during March Madness, it is airing at 2am in the morning. Next episode is scheduled for 2:10am tomorrow morning.

Maybe I am in the minority who thinks like this, but for me, Amazon Prime streaming doesn't feel like a streaming service because I subscribe to Amazon Prime for free shipping, and the streaming part is a bonus. (The only streaming I watch on Prime is the NFL, and the NBA if there is a Bulls...

Unfortunately I have seen an email sent to me at the wrong time...
