Did you get the other Platinum channels like Fashion TV ?

Yes, but with Dish you never know, especially if they are thinking of phasing Absolute out.

I wish Satguys would start a "why isn't channel X included with Dish Absolute?" thread.

 

[--sexy-warlock--]

Because Dish believes they are paying too little, and they are trying to nudge them away from it.

Free Preview.

I wish they offered it ala carte, thats the best news channel going!

Scott - Is the uplink report running from your PC again?? I noticed it's back on Eastern time ...

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Yes it is.

Digiblur had a blowout on his satellite tuner card.

I agree - how can one get Euronews currently?

 

[Mr Tony]

I thought Euronews was like 2 bucks a month but you needed 118.7 (they wouldnt activate it on 61.5 only)?

 

[digiblur]

Adding the Dish Latino Channel numbers usually happens a week - or less - before the channels being made available.

I do not remember Dish ever adding the Dish Latino channel numbers and then not making the channels available very soon thereafter.

They do not bother with the Dish Latino channel numbers when they are just testing and/or negotiating.

We have a winner!

 

[digiblur]

Yes it is.

And I still can't get my Genpix 8PSK card going after it just stopped working....

Not enough frowns to compensate for the loss.

Next set of changes I roll out, I'll put in GMT time for you guys

Not at all, EPIX HD is still up and is in the Platinum HD area.

That may be, but didn't they tell you that the SD version was going to be launched a few weeks ago?

Dish needs to start keeping its word!

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

No no one said anything it was just reported in the uplink report.

Scott anyone got the twitter channel?? I do not have it darn and I thought it would have the IJUSTINE show--she is a fox

 

[mike123abc]

Well, except for some moves so us 61.5/110/119 people can get the channels.

I sincerely hope Epix, Indie and Retro are in Platinum. Otherwise, I'm only getting the E! channel with my AT100.

With the failure rate of transponders on E3 at 61.5 I would not be surprised if they decide that this is not a valid configuration any more, and start requiring people to upgrade to full EA or full WA for all the HD channels. Dish still has not filed to move anything over to 61.5 to help out.

It definitely would take a huge thorn out of their side but yet piss off quite a few people. Time will only tell on this one.

Scott so there is no hope of getting ESPNU HD any time soon or what. Is there still a lawsuit Against ESPN from E* because no one has heard anything about it in a long time!!! Thought it was over when ESPNU sd got moved to a lower tier!!!!!
