    Does anyone have a phone number for a Dish CSR that can be called from a Canadian cell number in Canada? A Canadian who owns a second property in the States with Dish service has a problem trying to call Dish from Canada. Thanks for the reply.

    NFL Sunday coverage changes

    Some programming information for those of you that like to watch Sunday NFL day games from one of the Canadian providers. This season Global TV network will not with their 7 stations , I think that number is correct, be carrying any NFL Sunday football. Instead, the larger CTV Network with its...

    Interactive NHL Non-Existent

    Here we are into NHL playoff hockey and Dish Network with their interactive sports seems oblivious to information with these playoffs. Every morning after yesterdays games, I expect to see at the very least, scores and standings up to that point. Good luck. They are not there. Missing in...

    Court TV on Ch.204 Gone (Now BACK for AT200 Subs)

    I noticed this morning that Ch.204 which has had Court TV is gone from the guide. Hopefully this is a step towards inserting the Crime and Investigation channel. It would help defray the new price increases. :up

    Crime & Investigation Network

    I checked out the programming today for the Crime and Investigation Network and to me it seems as a very good alternative to Court TV. It would be nice, as it was already suggested here, perhaps they will replace Court TV. Come on Dish Network, do it already. ;)

    NHL CI free preview??

    Is there a 7 day period of free NHL Centre Ice coming up shortly? The guide does and does not show that as happening. Locks appear on some of the NHL games starting as early as today and continuing through until next week. I sometimes wonder if the information with the guide is accurate is...

    Canadian locals eligible in the US.

    Are there any Canadian locals been made eligible for carriage on satellite providers in the US? I know that cable companies carry across the border stations but was wondering if the law allows US satellite providers to do what Canadian providers are doing. :confused:

    HD signal on SD receiver

    I have noticed today for the first time on a sd receiver model 311 that I am monitoring a signal reading from three conus beam hd transponders. They are transponders 7 , 13 and 17, from satellite 110 deg. In the past, a HD receiver was required to view a signal from a HD transponder. Not so...

    Themes/Search/Sports Inaccurate

    I have noticed lately that the programer for Themes / Search / Sports - is consistently omitting information for sports under this heading while others will appear on the same day in the guide listings. Take today as an example. The Themes/Search/Sports lists just one live NHL game at...

    Dish Network carrying Canadian Nets.?

    What is the chance of Dish Network carrying the three major Canadian Networks, CBC, CTV, and Global just as the Canadian carriers have American networks? Any problems surely can be worked out. If they beat Direct and cable companies to these additional channels, one could see plenty of...

    Sport scores missing

    It would be nice if channel 100 under the heading sports scores kept final scores up for at least 12 hours. Next morning when I check for scores from last night, nothing. Having to check out each team separately for a score is very slow. Guide sport listings should indicate replay when it is...

    After switching back and forth last night to various NHL games on the 540 channels, to see how scores were going, I noticed that the audio levels were not always balanced.
