    MLB network

    I was looking into getting a Roku player to use to be able to watch MLB Extra innings, and as I understand it you subscribe to MLB online then hook the Roku player to your internet connection and then into your TV you can get the games on your TV. Have any of you used this method to get MLB...

    I'm looking forward to the uplink report tonight

    Yes Digi I checked the website and it says New Orleans has HD locals, plus Fox (ch 8) which was listed as SD on the uplink a few weeks back is also listed as HD avaible so that uplink was either a typo are since that uplink they reached an agreement with the local Fox network. Now I have mu...

    local channel delay dtv deadline

    That brings up a question I have about the conversion to digital. When the locals go to all digital and shut off the Analog, will that give them more power to use to transmit the digital signal? What I am asking is since many stations have been transmitting both analog and digital for awhile...

    List of HD Local Markets NOT Available on Dish Network

    Hey DBSorgie, I noticed on your new list you had early 2009 next to New Orleans. Have you seen something that says this is the case, because I have been waiting for the New Orleans HD locals for 2 years now, and I hadn't seen anything saying we would be getting them in early 2009. Man I hope you...

    Dish about to lose even MORE local channels

    I have a locals related question I hope someone on the forum can answer. I currently can't get my locals over ther air, (and of course Dish doesn't carry them) because I live a little too far from the transmission tower. My question is when they switch to digital, will I like have a better...

    Eastern Arc Dish Info & Install Guide

    Scott what about our local HD channels? As I understand it once dish gives New Orleans its HD locals they will be on a 61.5 spotbeam, so if that happens, and I really don't want a wing dish, then wouldn't I have to go to EA to get everything I get now (A250) plus my HD locals?

    Local HD channels

    According to Digi N.O. was suppose to use the Jackson, Ms spotbeam. Plus I don't understand why Dish can't come to agreement with the N.O. locals , becuase Direct has had our locals for over a year. I guess it is the Charlie factor, his ability to piss people off is unblievable. He has probably...

    Local HD channels

    I feel your pain. We here in New Orleans were originally scheduled for HD locals in late 2006, then it was to be the fall of 2008, now we have disappeared off of the schedule, and like you Direct has had our locals for over a year. I don't understand what is up with Dish

    new orleans hd locals

    The bad thing is that 90% of the people in the New Orleans area will see this on channel 75, and if they don't know about Satelliteguy they will think it is the truth. I hope Dish gets tons of calls from the New Orleans area subs asking to get thier HD locals now that they are available. Maybe...

    Charlie Chat Recap 6/9/08

    Yes Bob things are getting better, but some areas very slowly. However, the population is not that much less than pre katrina, and the people who didn't come back were lower income people who didn't spend $100 a month for Dish. Actually where I live there are more Dish customers than they had...

    Charlie Chat Recap 6/9/08

    New Orleans was left out of the HD locals for Summer/Fall. I can't understand why. We were scheduled for 2006, now it looks like it will be 2009 or later, and Direct has had new Orleans HD locals for over a year, so it can't be because of the local broadcasters holding things up. I just don't...

    Thank You, Scott, Satellite Guys & Dish Network! (NEW PHOTOS ADDED)

    Scott you said more HD will be comming in a month. I know you can't go into detail, but do you think we will get more before the Charlie Chat in June, and about how many are they talking about, 2 to 5 channels, 6 to 10 channels, greater than 10 channels? If you don't feel comfortable answering I...

    What is Eastern Arc?

    When does Team Summit start, and how many days does it run. I am interested because from what I read here they will probably introduce the new 1000.4 EA dish, and hopefully they will give some details on a time table for implementation? Scott I assume you will be updating us on what is going on...
