Official DISH Channel Request Thread

[Mojo Jojo]

A CW channel in HD in the Lincoln-Kearney market, for Supernatural. There's NO CW at all in this market, used to be one, albeit in SD

If you cannot pull in a CW affiliate OTA, then you may want to see if you qualify for superstations. If you qualify, you could pick a CW affiliate (like KTLA, WPIX, and KWGN...you may want to check the TV schedules before choosing on a tv listings site like Zap2it, Titan TV, TV Guide, etc.) or however many you want that are offered for $2/month each, or you may pay $7/month for all five superstations (I believe WSBK and WWOR are MyNetwork TV affiliates). I am not sure if Dish can "import" an affiliate from another market free of charge; it probably would not hurt to ask or to request.

You may check if you are eligible for superstations on your MyDish account or on the following site:

I think this could make a good Public Interest (PI) channel.

(Notice that it is free to cable providers. Maybe it would be free for Dish. )

Surely, some of you have seen it FTA......I do not know if it is anymore...I do not think it is anymore...

I would like to see DISH let the receiver use PSIP DATA for all ota sub channels ,if they aren't going to upload the guide info for the sub channels. This would be really nice ,once they get ota working on the hopper. Especially for MeTv that I really love to record off of. If we can't get Psip data then how about just uploading MeTv period. Would love to have that Channel on the satellite.

I don't remember seeing this one listed, but would like to see them get FOX College Sports, Preferably HD. This is not the same as the RSN, and it is not carried on DISH, there have been several games of my team that I have missed because I didn't have this channel.
