    Some of your current programming is scheduled to change?

    I got the same message & called last week. They said I could possibly be losing my local ABC channel. The message no longer shows on my account & I still have the channel.

    Add Me To The Party!!!

    After having Dish for 11 years, I switched to Directv about a month ago & I am loving it. I just wish I had switched a long time ago.

    Sports Blackout Symbol

    After 11 years with Dish I recently switched to Directv & I am loving it. I just have a question regarding sports blackouts. I am pretty well-versed in the blackouts for the sports leagues. However, sometimes with some college games or replays, it is not always clearly defined what will be...

    Thanks for the suggestions. Has anyone had any problems with installers not wanting to connect HD receivers to SD TVs?

    Cables used for Install

    I just set up an appointment to switch to Directv from Dish. I had a few questions on the cables used for the install. I'm getting the whole-home set up with two HD DVRs & two HD receivers. I have one HD TV that has both component/hdmi inputs. One HD TV with component inputs. One standard def...

    Switching from E* to D*

    I didn't realize I didn't have my location on my profile. I'm in Des Moines, IA. So I assume this would apply to me. I do want to make sure to get two HD DVR. So are you saying I should order one HD DVRs, one HD Receiver & just two standard receivers? Then they will upgrade the two standard...

    Switching from E* to D*

    After 12 years with E*, I am planning to switch to D*. But I have a couple questions: 1-Can you record more than one program at the same time on the SD DVR? 2-Can/will the installer connect and HD-DVR to an SD TV? I was told they would not do that. I have two HD TVs & two SD TVs & am just...

    The 2009-2010 College Basketball on Multi-Sports Pack Thread

    This is the first time I can think of where I've seen a game be "un-blacked out" during the game.

    The 2009-2010 College Basketball on Multi-Sports Pack Thread

    I am in Des Moines, IA. About 6:30 last night I was checking to see what games were going to be on. I know it showed that the Neb-SL game was blacked out on ch 418. But about an hour later when I was flipping through the channels, the game was on & not blacked out. It was also on one of...

    Iowa vs. Iowa St. on FSN

    In a day or two, the program guide should be updated through Sept. 12. That should show you for sure if it will be on ch 429.

    Programming and NBA League Pass

    I had NBA League Pass about three years ago. I don't have it anymore. But it still shows in Ala Carte Add-Ons on my account. They haven't tried to charge me for it.

    Gift for our loyal customers offer

    I got the postcard and called that number. I got three free months of Starz & HBO plus 6 months free Multi Sports pack (I had already gotten 3 free months of Platinum). I didn't have to do the 24-month commitment. I am currently not in a commitment period. I didn't upgrade from my 622 to a...

    Sports Pack Help

    I'm in the same situation as gopherscott. So in my case it is worth it just to get Twins & Wild games. As far as blackouts for college BB & FB. The only conferences blacked out for me are ACC, SEC & the some non-conference Big 12 games. None of the Big East or PAC-10 or smaller conferences...

    NBA Season Pass

    From my live chat with E* yesterday, the rep stated (Post #13): "Our goal at DISH is to complete the best deal for our subscribers in advance of the start of the regular season on October 28th." This statement really doesn't make sense. The cost of League Pass is very likely going to be the...

    NBA Season Pass

    I looked in the guide this morning. The League Pass channels were still on there, but I did not see any actual League Pass games on the schedule for the next 8-9 days.

    NBA Season Pass

    Through the Dish Network website live chat, I was told this today: Carol S: The NBA is currently in the process of negotiating a new distribution deal for NBA League Pass with all satellite, cable and telco providers. Our goal at DISH is to complete the best deal for our subscribers in advance...
