Not really national.
The last I looked AK and HI were still part of this nation!
At least Uncle B sure wants enough of my income every year, has me convinced that I'm part of the US.
What about Puerto Rico and the USVI for some things we are for others are not .
Sorry Guys but you didn't make it on our Flag either.
Hemi,We fight in the same wars and bleed and got killed under the same one.
You get our Protection, But not our TV.
That's the sad part,and on one side note we share as a US Soldiers that responsibility.

Yeah that is F*(& up man! Yeah I am getting the PR HD package about 5 channels we should be getting more than that if Alaska and Hawaii are getting from there Spotbeams they have space in our Spotbeams as well!
Diretcv in PR has signed an agrement with the Voom Channels!
Dish will be the first provider offering BETJ HD. Charlie even mentioned that on the chat.
Will we be the first to get the "HD" part, or will other providers have the channel by then?
I agree that PR and USVI are in the same boat. I can only presume that the reason we are treated the way we are is money, as in number of subscribers to the service. All of us outside the 48 states are residents of small population states and territories, thus we don't provide enough incentive for Dish to provide us with service on a par with the lower 48, as we say in AK. I've tried e-mails to dish and only ever got one response, the rest I'm sure end up in the trash can. If direct offered the locals in HD here, outside Anchorage than I'd probably switch, but they don't, so I stay. Of course Dish only carries two local HD channels, CBS and PBS. They don't seem to be interested in NBC and Fox, and ABC isn't in HD yet.
OK, rant off. I'll go watch the weather channel in HD so I'll know it's sunny in Florida.

We are aut. only from 110, because some moron dealers were setting up the 61.5 with a 4 footer and that won't work here has to be a six footer!
Cable sucks here man! Really bad If I was back living in Philly again well over there the Cable companies have good channels, but over here they Suck!
"No Info Available" it says after the the first 2 programs (which come from a different source) on each of the 4 new channels. This on one 722 while the other has the full schedule. This after the nightly reboot and another just to try be sure. This on the newer (no need for a card) one.
How can I improve the chance to load the full guide?
