NBA TV & NHL Network now on CH 156 & 157

I just saw that NBA TV and NHL Network are moving to 156 and 157. No uplink report has been posted yet but I guess it should be up soon.

Uplink report is now posted.

now all they need to do is to move Golf Channel and Big10 to the 150's

Big10 is considered a RSN in Dish's mind (aka not everyone gets it...some get it as a rsn and the rest need sports pack) so it wont be moved

I could see the possibility of Dish moving the Golf Channel or the Tennis channel to that area; probably ch 148 or 149.

I couldn't

Wish they would have left FSC on 149 instead of moving it to 406. I'm not a hardcore soccer fan, but I like to watch some and now I hardly ever think to check that far down in the guide to see what games might be on. With these moves most of the main sports would have then been in one area

This makes no sense. They move soccer up, other sports down. Then again, Dish's channel lineup has never really made sense.

Makes perfect sense, all 4 major sports have their own networks near each other in the 150s. Soccer just isn't that big of a deal to most Americans

what they need to is to move Golf Channel into the 149 or 158 are open

 

[Mr Tony]

why? Golf isnt one of the major sports so it works fine by Tennis Channel

No, but sports are sports. Lump the sports together. Lump the news channels together. Lump the home/cooking/science channels together. Lump the non-premium and FX like channels together. Dish just kind of throws everything in to a blender, and sets to puree.

I'm nitpicking, this isn't an active complaint.

Well if you want all the sports together, you'd have to move ESPN, VS, NFL, and everything to the 400s with the RSNs since there isn't room enough in the 100's obviously. I think the idea is to get the major basic sports networks together in the 140-157 range

I still dont understand the move of FS from 149?
