Fox Sports 1

[Scott Greczkowski]

Fox Sports 2 is replacing Fuel and will be on channel 398.

Thanks Zach!

And there you have it from... the (well I am not going to call Zach a Horse...) Guys mouth.

So it is staying in AT250? Either way I'm glad we will be covered if they use FS2 for college football. Now we just need word on FXX.

Didn't catch your first question. Fox Sports 2 will be in the AT120+ and 250.

Dish is already missing channels compared to DTV (ESPNU-HD, YES, Sportsnet-NY, MLB EI, NFL ST) but gives subs no discounts compared to DTV. If ESPN was cut off Charlie would pocket the $$, not give it back to subs.

better do a price comparison

Ahh I'm currently in the gap on AT200 but I will change that if they have programing I want.

Last question since we are drilling you.... Any word on whether FXX will be in HD?

Why is it not in the AT200 also?

For some reason there are a few channels in AT 120+ but not 200.

And it makes no sense at all!

This doesn't make sense to me. Why won't FS2 be in the AT200 package?

Isnt it because the plus cost adds a few RSN style channels? Some that arent in 200?

Since Fox Soccer is in HD on Dish, should mean we get FXX in HD. Awesome.

But all the RSNs are available in AT200 too. That is the package I currently have and it gives me Fox Sports Detroit and Big Ten Network as RSNs in my area.

I do think Fuel and Fox Soccer may have been missing from AT200 though.

If this means FXX is also not in AT200 they will lose a little bit of money from me because I will be downgrading to AT120+.

We will have more information available closer to the launch date.

Also in multisports

Also in multisports

Wasn't fox soccer also part of multisport? Does this mean FXX could be included in the sports pack even though it has nothing to do with sports?

No clue heh

 

[fishman23]

Pretty wild that Fuel HD has been on DirecTV since Oct. 2007.

 

[king3pj]

I highly doubt it. If everything in the contract stays the same it could be on a weird technicality.

So it seems like we are getting all 3...the real ? Is will fs 2 and fxx be in hd

Fs2 (fuel) no hd right now...if I remember dirt said no hd on Saturday

Fxx (fsc) hd now...hopefully hd on 9/2

Will they try to get these channels close by now in the guide???

 

[Yespage]

We will have more information available closer to the launch date.

Closer? How much closer? We are pretty close already.

Well he was talking about FXX when he said that. FXX doesn't launch until 9/2 so there is still some time left.

Asking as it been hard to keep up with all the fox sports stuff.

Since fox soccer is being replaced does that mean its just being rebranded or dish is just pulling fox sports soccer?
