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

    I noticed a couple of odd games blacked out for me over the weekend. I can't remember the specific games but one was a Mid American game and the other a Big West game. Didn't matter to me since I would not have watched either. But I found it kinda odd to be blacked out for these two games in the...

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

    Mine was the same way. I don't know what happened. I'm just glad it wasn't a UK game or I would have been really mad. It was also blacked out for me on the FSN channels. The first SEC game was blacked for me too on channel 420 but was available on channel 450. I noticed too that another Big 12...

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

    SEC games have been in the clear thus far here in the DC area. UK's game last night was black out free and Florida's was on Sunday. So far no black out has been posted for UK's games on Thursday night and Saturday afternoon. The only games I have noticed in DC area blacked out are Big 12 games...

    When will we get true local weather on 8s

    What DISH has is pretty much crapola. Nearly everytime I click on the interactive icon my signal goes out and the receiver has to reboot. It's never worked good for me and when I have seen it,it's not much,IMO. I just use the computer.

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

    Except for some early season games,the SEC has been black out free this football season. Which is good for me since I'm a Kentucky fan. Also UK's Blue/White basketball game and their exhibition game against Campbellsville was black out free on FSN South. So far the black out isn't on for their...

    NFL Redzone Free this Sunday...

    I got an e-mail from DISH announcing this free preview. I am already getting it though. It's a great channel if you are an NFL fan. I would rather have this than the NFL Sunday Ticket. This one time DISH came through for the sports fans.

    More info on NFL RedZone on Dish

    Wow! This is great! I'm not a big fan of a particular team anymore so this is right up my alley. I'm shocked DISH is being friendly to the sports fan. But Hey! I'm not complaining. Sounds like if I already have the Sports Pak I don't need to subscribe to anything else. Correct?

    Baseball Fans: 2009 list of ALL Spring Training TV Games (Great for Sports Pack Subs)

    Last season DISH blacked out nearly all of them. The Red Sox games weren't for some reason but just about everything else was.

    Dish Thankyou Card

    Apparently I'm not a good customer. I've been with them since 2001 and paid my bill on time every time. Oh well.....

    Free Preview of Premium Channels?

    If a provider like HBO has a free preview weekend then DISH should have it. This is nothing but shear cheapness on DISH's part. And just plain stupid. These free previews are offered to whet the appetite of non subscribers in hopes they will subscribe. I'm sure DISH gets a cut from each...

    Are all receivers supposed to get new cards? I have a 501 and 3922. I have not received any for mine.

    NBA Season Pass

    I noticed over the weekend that their were pre season games on a free preview of the NBA League Pass channels. I wouldn't think they could put these on without an agreement.

    I agree that is screwy and not right,IMO.

    You have to have the sports pack to get it. Do you have that?

    ESPN Gameplan 2008

    I don't ever remember any games not being available. Satellite will have more channels available than cable for this type of package. So they aren't very likely to drop any games. DISH doesn't assign the channel number for games until about friday. Why they wait that long is a mystery to me? I...

    Superstation package ?

    Thanks. I think that's it. There's a WB station in DC. DISH and MLB will go to great lengths to make sure you can't view their product.:rolleyes:

    Superstation package ?

    Last night I tried to order two of the superstations,the two NYC channels. I thought I would pick up a little extra baseball. When I tried to order the CSR that because they were out of my DMA I couldn't get them. I was thinking anyone could pick these channels up no matter were you lived. Am I...

    You would think they would give us a free preview to see if this showcase is worthwhile or not? ;)

    What is an STB Reboot?

    Nah. He's too lazy to get up and go all the way downstairs to turn on the TV.:) Thanks to everyone for their help. You were much more helpful than DISH! I just hope the hard drive isn't going bad. So far, I haven't had any more glitches.

    What is an STB Reboot?

    I have a 501 DVR. On April 9th I set it to record two events. One at 10 pm and the other at 11 pm. Neither recorded. When I clicked on the program in my scheduled events, the message it gave was that it didn't record due to an STB reboot. What is that? I called DISH and talked to someone in the...

    Major League Baseball Sues Dish

    DISH gets sued way too much for it just to be coincidence or just par for the course for a big company. As the old saying goes, "where there's smoke,there's fire". It just seems to me they like push the envelop way too far and too often in order save a few dollars here and there. In the long run...
