Dish Launches RSN's in HD

After the Cardinals game and postgame was over 368 FSMHD is carrying Music and a Dish Logo.

But hey, if they only carry the Cardinal games, that is a step in the right direction.
 
My question is, what markets are the various RSNs serving and are they 24/7 or just for games?
 
How bogus! Why do we pay for sports packages like Center Ice when they don't show the games in HD? You have to live in a DMA to get the HD feed even though you pay for the sports channels and Center Ice? Not even VS in HD.

This is overblown hype!
 
I am really pissed off that Dish did not turn on FSN-NW, there's 90 games I'll miss this season!!!!!! All Northwest people, e-mail Dish at ceo@echostar.com, and voice your complaint at them and tell them to turn Fsn-NW on!!!!!!!!!!
 
Thankfully this means OU games in HD this coming football season

Tell them to turn on ALL of the RSN's that werent made available in HD....not just pick and chose which RSN to go HD. I dont think yours or my bill will be any cheaper than those that do have their RSN in HD. FYI.....FSN North here An email will be going out today to the ceo for sure.....
 
I don't understand why they turned on FSNFL but are waiting until the fall for SunSports. They are both owned by the same company. They split baseball coverage pretty evenly so some games that will be broadcast in HD I won't be able to get because they're on Sun.

I got tired of waiting so I scheduled a HD cable install for this morning. I still have Dish but it is now necessary to suplement it a little.

The Time Warner Digital Starter Pack will cost me an extra $30 per month and give me:
YES & YES-HD
SNY & SNY-HD
WWOR, WPIX and WNET all in HD

Of course there is more but I get the rest in HD via Dish.

No InHD here as that is in a higher priced package.

I wish Dish would get their act together and get going on all of this. I'd much rather have that $30 back in my pocket.
 

Only Marlins overflow games air on Sun Sports....and none of those in HD.

FSN Florida is the only HD MLB channel we have. 74 HD (out of 110 total for FSN) Marlins games & 39 HD (out of 75 total for FSN) Rays games on FSN Florida HD. Marlins only air 40 games on SUN and all are SD in 2007.

SUN airs the Lightning, Magic, and HEAT in HD.
FSNFL airs the Marlins, Rays, and Panthers in HD.
 

Oh, you're right. I was looking at some of the basketball and hockey games that sun has in HD.

I already checked that too. No HD Marlins games on Sun Sports channel. Just remember that FSN FL channel will use the 720p HD format like few other RSN.

What does it mean for people who already dish customers. I called last month and was told that I have to pay $150 to upgrade 211 to 622. Is it $49.99 now?

No, I would say it is only for Non-HD subscribers like it has been.
 
I looked around but didn't see the answer to this question. Maybe I just missed it, but I'm curious, are the RSNs 720 or 1080 (i'm assuming 720).
 
720p

"HD games are telecast by FSN Midwest in the 720p format, which renders ultra-sharp pictures and provides excellent resolution for sports programming."

For Sports 720p should be better than 1080i.
