A few weeks ago Dish moved all the Chinese channels from the 600-700 range up to the 9900's.Haven't seen it mentioned on this forum. Anyone know why?
 
Is this on a satellite other than 118? If so when an international channel does that it usually means they are going off that satellite.
 
Ok, what I meant was did this change take place on a satellite other than 118. If it changed location on 118, then I don't know why.

Usually moving to the 9000 range is the death knell. Just ask AMC.

No, Dish is moving all Internationals to the 9700-9900 range. They have been for several months. They are not going away. There are only a few left in the 500-700 range.

I would say that is far from true. Virtually ALL channels on 118 are international channels. Not only that the the 500-700 range if full of internationals. Maybe they have moved some but take a look 500-700 is very populated.
