    DISH Secures Long Term Cricket Rights

    Smart move by Dish. Offer the IPL bait, and pull in customers from Directv, and comcast. I guess they would have looked at the # of people who subscribed to the world cup package , and made this move. BTW, baseball is boring compared to cricket.

    Echostar 14 update

    Echostar 14 update

    In other words, you start moving the satellite east, and since it is in the same direction as the rotation of the earth, the angular velocity w.r.t the earth increases, and hence the centrifulgal force. So you need to bring it closer to the earth to increase the gravitaional force to avoid it...
