Holy crap!! Good thing I was sitting down when I saw that!! First game is 3/25 6am from Japan. Hopefully it will be available then....

I can not believe it!! It must be a dream.

I had to double-check a calendar to make sure today wasn't 4/1....

 

[jmnstevens]

All I can say is Sweet and the Red Sox have taken the field!

From what I understand there was some issues of getting some areas converted off of 105 and thus why we are seeing some locals going back on 105.

Probably labor shortages getting everyones dish converted.

Is there any video data on slates for SCI-FI and USA? I hope that I said that right.

Same here, I actually called up the executive office yesterday bitchin about them having a contract with NESN to carry there HD and not let us enjoy the HD and pissing off REDSOX Nation.

Of course here at work we stream the HD feed on the network for thoses day games, and we will have our company logo of them jerseys.

Excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean?

 

[RandallA]

Excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean?

No video, no audio, nothing going on.

 

[darrencp22]

Means that there is no programming on the uplinked channels. Probably just a Dish HD logo.

 

[dijohn76]

Well there goes my hope for this week!

 

[mrperple]

5434(434) - NESN [MPEG4 HD] added to EchoStar3 61.5W TP 30 ConUS beam (Not Available)

HOLY CRAP!! I must be dreaming. Someone pinch me please. On second thought don't.

 

[harshness]

I guess promoting PORN is more important than providing HD content for DISH

They're not promoting Club Jenna. Making something available is different from promoting it. Adult programming probably more than pays its way at $15-30/month per channel.

Of course as Scott points out, DISH has been offering Club Jenna and other "adult" channels for a long time. In fact, DISH is one of the few services that offers adult programming on a monthly basis.

If you're trying to make a point about what people should and shouldn't watch, this isn't the place to do it.

Means no heart beat.

But also means that Dish can shock life back (flip the switch ) at any time.

See above # 32

Means no heart beat.

Maybe due to watching 486 - JENNA ?
