    Will Echostar XIV allow FSN HD full time?

    I was pleased as punch to learn about the launch of Echostar 14 and the added HD capacity it will give Dish Network. Heaven knows they need it with the bandwidth problems they have now, restricting their ability to broadcast Fox Sport regional Networks in HD full time. As I understand it, that...
