Echostar Launch Party TONIGHT!

[Scott Greczkowski]

Join your friends here from SatelliteGuys.US as we have an Echostar 11 Launch Party!

The fun starts tonight at 1 am ET / 10 pm PT in our SatelliteGuys Chat Room!

We will be watching the launch of Echostar 11 which will air live on channel 101 or you can watch on the Sea Launch website by Clicking Here!

Speaking of Sea Launch, Paula Korn (who will be hosting tonights broadcast) has just sent me over the attached photo taken just a little while ago of the rocket and satellite on the launchpad getting ready for tonight.

Paula also indicated that we are still GO for the launch tonight!

GO ECHOSTAR 11!

[tigerfan33]

I will have to miss this one.

I will say a little prayer for the launch before I go to sleep tonight.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

I got to set my alarm clock to wake up and see it.

 

[db2]

I won't be awake to see it but here's hoping this one goes better than the last one!!

 

[tomcrown1]

I know it will go better because I will be asleep.

Ps if the thing blowsup then you know I was watching.

 

[dmendenjr]

This is the first one since I subbed; I kinda feel obliged to stay up and watch it (Plus, I am off tomorrow!)

Oh yeah, I'll be there- Not!

Best of luck to ya, and let's hope there's no delay and "launch hold."

Remember what happened the last time we had one of these.

There's a rumor elsewhere about an issue. Scott, hear anything on this?

 

[Hall]

What rumor ? Post it here.

 

[tomcrown1]

oky this is a rumor not true Dish is going under. Charlie the tuna stated that he perfer the chicken of the sea over anything in space.

I think the rumor post was a reference to another thread on the death of Echostar 2

 

[rad]

What rumor ? Post it here.

Maybe talking about http://www.satelliteguys.us/dish-network-forum/142373-echo-ii-gone.html

 

[darrencp22]

That may be it as the post said from another site. Maybe the poster is confused.

 

[DallasBill]

Just added it to the DVR also:up

Yep, the party is way past my bedtime too, but here's to hoping this one goes better than the last botched effort. It certainly couldn't go worse! Well, never mind...I guess it could always crash into EchoStar XII (old Rainbow-1).

BEST OF LUCK!

Go E11.
