Now this puzzles me, isn't 120+, for example, inclusive of the RSN? I always took the + as the surcharge.

Dish is also adding a Regional Sports Surcharge...
Yeah...I did too. The surcharges aren't too much though - I punched in some zip codes for places that still have RSN's, and the largest surcharge is $1. Quite a bit different than DirecTV. Interesting though - California and Boston have no surcharges - makes me wonder if Dish's contract with the rest of the NBC Sports RSN's and NESN will be ending at the end of the year.
Thanks - I missed that. I did it closer to LA, which is the area I am more familiar with. Maybe the contract won't expire then.
Yeah this is why I'm planning on cutting the cord in 2020.

Also this-Package pricing does not include $12/month Local Channels price.
So add $12 to all packages?

Merry Xmas everybody!
Actually, better than I expected.

Interesting. Our DMA receives the same RSN's as San Francisco but our RSN Fee is going to be $1 instead of $3
Is the Regional Sports Surcharge only charged if you are receiving your Regional Sports channels? I put in my zip code 43064 for Plain City, Ohio and it listed the surcharge as $1. Yet my 2 Regional Sports channels Fox Sports Ohio 412-15 and Fox Sports Cincinnati 412-17 are still removed. If Dish is planning on getting those channels back I will gladly pay the extra $1 to be able to watch my Cleveland Indians and Cincinnati Reds.

My NY billing address ZIP code has no surcharge, but my VT service address ZIP has $1 charge, so I presume it's the Burlington DMA part that gets tagged, not the Albany DMA. I expect they charge by the service address rather than the billing address, so it'll be interesting to see what I get charged as I move around GA, FL, and NC over the winter months.
In the end, I am surprised that it went up by $5 for most packages. After having many RSN's dropped this year, and with those being such a big cost, I thought we would have seen something like $2-$3 for all packages instead of the $5.
