2011 DirecTV Package Channel Lists - Including Family & Select

[jcrandall]

Over the past few weeks we have had several members ask about the Select packages, what channels are included and what is not. Packages like Family and Select are available from DirecTV CSR's by requst for most customers, but they intentionally do not provide information on their website, including what channels are included.

Today I compiled information from several sources to build a complete list of packages and channels, as accurate as possible. There may be a few misses in these, let me know if that is the case so I can fix it - you can just post it in this thread. Also note the pricing is for 2011 after the February increase.

I hope this helps people understand what is available in each package, including both select packages. Remember, with Family or Select you do NOT get your Regional Sports Network.

The information is in these three pictures, or if you want to print it / save it use the PDF attached at the bottom:

I like it.
I think its good.

One question though, how come then entire list isn't in alphabetical order?
No biggy just wondering if you were just trying to focus on the Select subscribers?
Which is fine, Just want to see how your list was made up.

Hello,

When I try to open the file it shows up under word with real messed up writing and then asks me if I want to use any other coding to view it. Any ideas that would help me read it in the pdf format?


Thank You,

Frazier

[Mr Tony]

if you click on the thumbnails they will show larger pictures. Maybe that might be easier

I wanted to show what you add as you go up in packages, felt that was more important than alphabetical.
This way if you have choice and think of dropping to select you can see what you lose, as well as the difference in the two select packages.

I felt this was most effective for what I hope people use it for, choosing a package.

Ion West 347( Choice and above)
Logo 272 ( Choice Extra and above)
Tv Guide Network 273 (Choice and above)

I left out all West coast feeds, not just Ion.
I missed Logo.
TV Guide is listed with the public interest / religion / shopping as it doesn't do much. It is in all packages except Family. That list is at the bottom of page 3.

Try running Adobe Reader, then clicking File then open and open it that way.

You probably have PDF files redirected to Word somehow, which means you won't be able to just double click the file. You can change this by right clicking a PDF file and say Open With.

The materials I found all show Spike not in either Select package, only in Choice and above.

Spike wasn't in the Classic Select. That I do remember.

I just figured you left that out with the other RSN's.
Yes I know D* has it as a national, but most providers have it as a Local RSN.
