Channel 9413?

[combsisthebest]

I was looking into requesting JC-TV on Dish, and they came up with this message, "JCTV is not currently offered by DISH Network.

But we have good news! You can sample JCTV on a shared channel with a network called " Educating Everyone." JCTV will air on channel 9413 Monday - Friday at 3:00PM Pacific Time to 5:00am Pacific Time and 24 hours on Saturdays."

I tried to bunch in the channel number and came up with nothing. I have AT180 and a 625 receiver. Can somebody please help?

They removed Educating Everyone on Sepetember 29, 2004

Thank you. I should've known Sky Angel was behind this... These kind of tactics that Sky Angel pulls is exactly why I don't have Sky Angel.

Dish added a channel they knew violated the contract they signed with Sky Angel. Should they just allow themselves to be run over? Dish agreed with SA that they would not add any predominantly religious channels, then they went ahead and did it anyway. Then people get angry when SA holds Dish accountable?

Yeah, but I wouldn't want to be Sky Angel when contract renewal comes around.

Yes I have now realized this fact, and after a couple of emails with the VP of Sky Angel I take my above comments back.

Sky Angel still has something Dish wants (6 transponders). Dish still has something Sky Angel needs (a satellite and uplink facilities). I see the partneship continuing for a while.

Only time will tell. I guess we need to revisit this in 4 years or so when the current contract is up.
