I told my daughter they were coming back and all i got was an "oh". She really does not care as long as she gets the channels some way.
Nothing in the uplink report. You are watching it on your TV or just speculating?

You know, if Dish authorizes ESPN News for PR customers, those of us with a dish pointing at 61.5 would get that too.

Why you get a dish pointing to that sat when dish don't have anything over there for us. Imo not everyone can get that sat anyway so dish just avoid trouble by not going that route

now with the new sat, you can capture 61.5 with a 30", i have a 6 footer pointed to that satellite a long time ago, when we could get the HD available there, now it only serves spotbeam locals and conus mpeg4 SD, maybe i will "move" if they change to mpeg4 HD
But we used to have ESPNNews HD before all of this Disney mess with Dish
But Still no ESPNNews HD
But Still no ESPNNews HD
there is no HD version of ESPN News HD on 119, 110 right now, i don't know if there is any space available on the PR spotbeams to uplink that channel to us specifically, they only up-linked the conus versions. i think they moved the HD version to 129 or 72.7
Yup I now but I would have preferred Espn News than Espn U I had it on 2010 before all the Disney and Dish crap
As manteca said, we used to get a LOT of HD from 61.5 way back when. And the sat has a pretty strong signal covering PR. I still get the following channels from there: 3ABN (9393), PNTGN (9405), ARTS (9406), ALMA (9413), BTV (998).
Plus, and this is very important, E16 has 5 transponder frequencies for spotbeams to Puerto Rico:

Why Dish launched a satellite with spot beams for PR while at the same time not allowing us to access programming from that satellite? This I don't understand.
So, in theory, Dish could allow anyone with a corresponding package plan to be able to watch ch. 9530 (ESNWS-HD), as they did with Premium HD a while back. Specially with such a strong-signal sat. This is not to say that they will, but they could.
