Dish America silver & RSNs

[brad1138]

I can't seem to get a consistent answer to this question. Dish web site is vague about it. A CSR told me yes, but we all know what that is worth. Are the RSNs available in Dish America Silver (the middle package). I only care about my local one.

Thanks,
BRad

The RSN's are included with the Dish America Silver and Gold packages.

Why would the all HD package have the RSNs only in sd?

He meant that the HD feed is only turned on when a game is on and even so, not every game is shown in HD. This is a matter with Dish only and not from the RSN.

What about the red zone channel in silver?

 

[CK SatGuy]

redzone is only available in the multi-sport package for an additional $7/month.

Well it looks like it can be added, are there any specials to get it free?

You might want to check with a dirt member about the Multi-Sport package. I was told awhile back that I needed at least 120+ to add the package. DA Packages did not qualify.

This was done with a csr via chat so not sure how true..

Good luck!

The MultiSports package is available with the Dish America Silver/Gold packages. There may have been a problem with adding MultiSports to those packages in the past but the issue has been resolved.

That is why I said ask a dirt member

That's good to know, as I have been thinking about downgrading my programming and going with DA silver and adding multisport but was holding back as I didn't think it could be added to DA packages. Will have to go compare costs and programming again now.

Kinda odd that FX and Nick are not included. I can understand maybe Hallmark.

When you are ready to make the change let me know and I'll get it taken care of for you. Thanks!

That's a Fox problem not allowing their channels in the HD only packages.

With Big 12 games on FX, I will have to wait till after football conference games are over, as football is about all we watch on tv anymore other than network programming. I did drop platinum today as a start. We just pay for way more programming than we actually watch anymore. A year ago was a different story.
