    Spot beam reach?

    Awesome. Much appreciated. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, guys. Thanks for the heads-up on Medford/Portland, too. I'm trying to straddle the No Cal/Washington RSNs to pull in both the Giants and Mariners. I'd rather have Portland for locals, but as long we get something, it's...

    Spot beam reach?

    OK, gang... Got a map question for someone with more smarts than me. (Which is pretty much everybody around here.) I'm planning another "move" for RSN purposes, but I'm worried that if they remember to shut off my current local channels, I might be outside the reach of the spot beam that...

    A moving mystery

    Oh definitely. I helped him do it the way I had a few weeks back. Which is why I thought it odd that it worked out for me but not him since he's right next door. His intended destination (Southern California) didn't seem all that much further than I had just "moved." I just found out he...

    A moving mystery

    Mine's an SD receiver. That's a good idea, tho. They might be due for an upgrade anyway. Thanks for the help, everyone! Much appreciated. We'll see what we can work out up here based on the info!

    A moving mystery

    Thanks for the reply! Wouldn't he still at least get his true locals (as I am getting right next door to him)? He's getting zilch. Thanks for the maps too, though I'm new and not exactly sure how to read 'em. We're in the 98926 zip code trying to move him to Twentynine Palms (92277) to pick...

    A moving mystery

    I recently "moved" from Central Washington state to Northern California to get my RSN from out of state. Worked like a charm, and I even kept my Washington locals. My next-door neighbor tried the same thing for Southern California. He got the RSN he was after but now has NO locals at all. His...

    Sweet. I was wondering about doing it online. Forgot about live chat mode!

    "Moving" question from a newbie

    That makes sense, shy_guy. Now that I think about it, the first time we ever signed on to DISH they may have discussed whether or not there was already a dish in place. Yeah, I'm sure it looks easier than it really is to get one up and running all by your lonesome. At least for a low-tech...

    "Moving" question from a newbie

    Thanks for all the info, guys. Much obliged. I appreciate you weighing in, too, Iceberg. You seem like the go-to guy for this topic based on those earlier threads I mentioned. (Looks like I'm on 119 already according to the receiver, but the RSN is all I'm really after, so I can take or leave...

    "Moving" question from a newbie

    Ah... Now that sounds promising. So you "moved" to Dallas then and basically got the whole Dallas enchilada? I'd be fine with getting everything No Cal. Yakima locals suck anyway. And it was just a simple matter of a phone call, right? I'm thinking of using my parents' address. They're...

    "Moving" question from a newbie

    Uh-0h... DMAs? Spotbeams? The threads I read didn't mention anyone having snags like that. (I'm in the Seattle area trying to grab northern California. Is that a problem?) I have no idea what I'm talking about. I'd buy my own equipment if I had to. Is that that only way?

    "Moving" question from a newbie

    New guy here. Sorry if this info is elsewhere, but I've looked around and can't find it. Several threads have talked about "moving" in order to zone in on your hometown RSN while physically out of market. (I need Comcast SportsNet Bay Area for my San Fran Giants but I live in Washington...
