I currently have AT120+, mainly because of the included sports channels. With all sports being canceled for the foreseeable future, I am seriously considering switching to Flex Pack. I mean, why should I pay for ESPN, FS1, BTN, SECN etc. when they aren't showing any live sports? To keep everyone...
I kind of like the feature. For example, when I turn on the TV in the morning, it knows that I want to watch the local news, regardless of which channel it was on the night before. But one thing that is annoying is that after I downgraded from the AT200 package to AT120+, the receiver will...
I am also in the Spokane market. I recently received a free antenna and OTA adapter due to the loss of FOX28. I was pretty excited to get it set up and unsubscribe from Dish locals to save $12 a month. But now, I see I have the same issue with KHQ and realize that if I go strictly OTA, I won't...
As a Pac-12 fan, this is the biggest reason why I chose Dish over DTV. And also why I haven't tried switching to a streaming platform. No P12N on Hulu or YTTV. Fubo has it, but no ESPN. Sling has it, but no locals.
What's also misleading is that 6 of those channels (NFLN, BTN, P12N, LHN, SECN & FS2) are already included in AT120+, which is the minimum package required to get the Multi-Sport Pack. So, you're really only getting 17 channels.
Just to follow up on my earlier post re: the free antenna, I contacted Dish shortly after I posted here 2 weeks ago. The rep on the phone didn't offer an outdoor antenna installation, but did say he could send me a free indoor antenna and OTA adapter. I said sure, thinking that the new adapter...
FYI - The FOX NOW app is allowing me to watch live pregame coverage, so it appears they have it unlocked for Super Bowl. This may be an option for those who have decent internet service.
FOX NOW app won't let me watch the Xavier-Seton Hall men's basketball game that is on right now. Says I need to log in with a provider. When I log in with my Dish credentials, it tells me not available and to contact Dish. I suspect the same will happen for the Super Bowl tomorrow. My local FOX...
Looking at the main lineup card posted earlier, the channels with a black square next to them are included in the Flex Pack. Channels highlighted in blue are available in one of the add-on Channel Packs. So, any channels without the black square or blue highlighting are not available with Flex...
Anyone know how the free antenna offer works? Do I have to wait for an email from Dish, or do I contact them? What type of antenna do they install? About a year ago, I purchased the RCA indoor antenna & OTA adapter directly from Dish, but had too many problems with it (Joey would freeze up and...
There are reports that Thursday Night Football will be blacked out on NFL Network tonight if a deal with FOX can't be reached. How can they do that? NFLN isn't a FOX channel. SBJ Media: Different Showdown For "Thursday Night Football"
Fortunately, as far as the Buckeyes are concerned, you have nothing to worry about until 10/18, when they play a Friday night game at Northwestern on FS1. The next 2 OSU games are on ABC.
The Pac-12 is under contract to provide a certain number of games to both ESPN and FOX. They can't just take over all the TV rights because they feel like it.
Looking at last year's schedule, there was one time slot on September 9 - Hawaii @ UCLA was on the Pac-12 national feed at 2 pm PT, and Weber St. @ Cal was played at the same time on Pac-12 Bay Area. I can't say for certain, but I'm pretty sure the Cal game was not available on DISH's Pac-12...
I know this is an old thread, but I just wanted mention that the DISH guide has games listed in the Pac-12 alternate channels for this Saturday (9/15). At 2 pm PT/5 pm ET, the national channel (406-1) is showing San Jose St. @ Oregon. At the same time, New Hampshire @ Colorado is on 406-2. Idaho...
Fortunately, my local CBS station (KREM-Spokane) does not seem to be affected. But, as a fan of college football and basketball, I will certainly miss having access to CBSSN. Can't get that OTA.
Does DISH ever use these channels? This Friday is opening day of the college basketball season. Pac-12 Network has a triple header on their national feed, but there are 7 other games being shown on the various local feeds (Pac-12 Bay Area, Pac-12 Washington, etc). Seems like this would be the...
Just to follow up on this, after an update this morning, my guide is now showing Texas Tech/Oklahoma on my local ABC station and also on ESPN2 channel 143, with channel 143 being blacked out in my area. Georgia Tech/Clemson will be on ESPN Alt channel 144 in Standard Def only. Still don't...
