MASN on Dish?

uplinked but not avaialable. the uplink was reported some time ago.

No, channel 421 was what was reported a while back. 421 was removed this morning, and 432 was added in its place (same transponder) along with 433. One would assume this is MASN and MASN2, and this is a good sign.
 
I will believe it when I see it. But thanks for the info and for the correction.
 
Great news for you guys!

I am very glad to see this but living in PA it doesn't do me any good unless they get the extra innings package!
Which then this would be great news for me as I am an O's fan.
 
This is good news,... but I just turned to WJZ and i got golf. Turned to 432 and 433 and got the bue 'This program is not available for viewing in your area' attention screen! I wonder if I need to reset this 942 in order to get it! But I though the game was suppose to come on WJZ (local) tonite.
 
WOO HOO!!!!! Finally, after two years, I get to see my Nats lose on Dish! Fair is fair - I will go back to recommending Dish to friends and co-workers in the DC area. Ahhh... this will be a great summer, even if we go down in history with losses. Thank you Charlie!
 
Just watched the Yanks/O's game tonight :D 162 Orioles games and 162 Nationals games, WOW. This was a must have, can't believe it's finally here, but about time! Only missed 2 O's games

Looks like a rough season for the Nats, but who knows after what the Marlins did last season.. Do they have any young talent besides Zimmerman? It looks bleak just by looking at their roster.
 
i'm still unable to get 432 or 433. What are you guys seeing when you tune into these stations? I shouldn't have any trouble with this,... i have the everything package w/HD.

432 is MASN and the O's/Yankees game just ended and now it's the postgame, 433 is MASN2 and had the Nats/DBacks game which ended at 10PM and now it is showing a Dish slate with music.

Unless you are in MD, VA, WV, NC, you won't get it with Everything Pack. You'll need Multi Sports pack.

Well I'm not sure what's going on here. But I jump from 424 Comcast Sport net directly to 441,... one of the ALT channels. I've made sure that the channel listing is set to ALL, and I know I'm living in Randallstown, MD 21133. Wait a second!

Yep, I'm in my house in Randallstown 21133. Had to check the numbers on the front of my house and the street sign out on the corner.

Maybe it'll change when it shuts down to update @ 3:00 AM. I hope so!!!!

Do a check switch on your reciever, that will probably bring them in.

I had the same issue. You need the multi Sports pack.

JZ-DT carried golf the last two afternoons while analog carried the regular programming. I wasn't home at game time, but I guess they stayed with the golf past 7 last night.

I hope you got your problem with 432/433 fixed. I didn't initially have it last night, but it finally popped in a little before 9.
 
i did the "move" to boston tonight. it was painless, as always. i'll get to see the orioles whenever they play the red sox and i'll get plenty of other AL-East coverage on NESN. it's not ideal, but it'll have to do until something gets figured out with MASN.

amazing -- masn on dish. i never thought it would come through. i "moved" back home this morning and have the orioles / yankees game on masn right now. now i have to redo all of my dvr timers on the local channels. my three year old son is really going to miss thomas and friends (train show) on boston's pbs station (WGBH).
 
Absolutely love this addition, so much baseball it's incredible. The channels are pretty much worthless October->February it appears, but it's fantastic other than that.
 
the end of the orioles / yankees game was fantastic and i missed it b/c i was at a birthday party my boy got invited to. ugh. i'll DVR the midnight rebroadcast and watch the last few innings during easter brunch. :)
