It is awful. I called in a cancellation today. I hope more people do to send them a message. Utopia is one niche format they did well and isn't readily available in other places (terrestrial, etc.). While I know the same music is available on Spotify, Pandora, and IHeart, I haven't found a...

Update: After the second call, I now have the Sirius Premier for $77 x 2 receivers. It took 50% off plus a $92 bill credit to still raise my annual subscription by $40 from the amount I paid last year. It was done as a "One time customer satisfaction courtesy". They tried to tell me I had...

The sham part of it is that I had NFL play by play and now, they are offering me the $77 deal but not telling me I'll have a downgrade in programming. They claim my old package was "replaced" by Sirius Select. When I started questioning the "downgrade" they weren't disclosing, my call was...

I'm in Houston and here, there is essentially no difference between Sprint & Verizon's 3G speeds--they both run around 1.5 mbps, which is pretty much the real-world max for EVDO Rev A. On 4G, I average around 5 mpbs but have seen as fast as 9 mbps in speed tests.

I believe they will put you on DishFamily @ $19.99 including locals. I could be wrong on the price...

The 3g in Lafayette is very similar to the 3g I get here in Houston. When I went "home" last month, I was getting 1.0-1.1Mb/s downstream in Lafayette. Maybe they'll bring Baton Rouge up to par. Also, FWIW, from Alexandria to Natchitoches, Sprint phones are getting 3g service from the Verizon...

Scott, that's EXCELLENT speed. I'm in Houston and get 6-9Mb/s down and 1Mb/s up on my Evo. I haven't seen much of anything above 1Mb/s upload. It's still great since my home cable internet is 3down/1up.

I'm familiar with the local tool where it would normally show FSN Southwest but if you look at the channel listing for the multi-sport package, it includes 421-CSTNO AND if you go to the Game Finder - DISH Network and use the zip of 71111 (Bossier City), it shows CSTNO in the list of available...

The HD channel is CONUS. I'm 'living' in the Shreveport DMA and have the sports pack. It's also on cable in the Shreveport DMA including Shreveport/Bossier and Natchitoches. I was wondering the same thing. It's listed in the sports pack on Dish's website. I expect Hornets games to be blacked...

Staying with Dish. Satisfied minus the loss of my RSN.

Fancy looking. Maybe it's time for an upgrade...

I too have ordered from dishstore. A+.

It was with the help of an electric drill on mine. :D

I also have a Speakman Anystream. A stay at the Sheraton New Orleans did it for me. I bought mine at Home Depot about 4 years ago for around $40. Well worth it.

Frank, I assume you are referring to the satellite feed of the locals rather than OTA reception of locals... I've seen those yellow screens when Dish's OTA reception equipment for the LiL channels loses its lock on the local stations. I've seen this a few times on the Houston stations. The...

Digi, do you think this will be for the entire Lafayette DMA or will it be split based on the individual parishes? I.E. WVLA is SV for Lafayette, KPLC is SV for Acadia, and KALB is SV for Evangeline for NBC.

I'm leaning more towards the upcoming 4G HTC Evo when I am upgrade eligible in June. The only issue is the potential price difference for 4G service on the phone vs. what I'm paying for 3G with my Everything Data 450. HTC EVO 4G is Sprint's Android-powered knight in superphone armor, we go...

Palm Pre and free Airave at home

I agree. They found a way to charge us $10/month for the channel.

:wave I also recommend leasing equipment. Also, have an installer come over to make sure your signal is maximized. You will be much more satisfied with your service if everything works as it should. I too use broadband instead of a phone line for my receivers with no problems. Besides...

Just confirmed with my mother in Ville Platte they are up and running. They looking great... Too bad they cannot provide guide data for KALB and KPLC. Those are the 2 NBCs easily available in Evangeline Parish. Since Lafayette is on the bird now, maybe I will try re-pointing to BR on my next...

Lafayette locals in HD! YAY!

How will a bankruptcy filing affect lifetime subscriptions? Can they void/dishonor the lifetime subscription as part of the bankruptcy (assuming they continue to operate and/or change ownership)?

I want to do the same but fox business is my sticking point. If you have the biggest HD package and the Platinum HD add-on, there is NO reason you should not have a non-premium channel in your package.

I don't pay the extra $10 for HD Gold so I would have never noticed the channel is gone. This is only one removal...Dish will have to eventually add more HDs to stay competitive.
