From the Dish Network website. Choose programming, on left hand side top click overview, left hand side click basic packages, center of screen half way down in gold and black, click on "click here to compare our most popular packages". Top left hand corner drop down box, click on HD programming. Under the sports section towards the bottom you can see it says the outdoor channel is available in the HD silver package. Yet, indeed it is NOT! Didn't realize that until after the fact. Dish Network screws me and others again.
