OLN coming back to dishnetwork on Saturday

[Smoke]

That was a long wait.

Wow, Charlie looks like a genius. Doesn't he?

OLN was on the extended sports tier I believe to start off the season. I had signed up for it before they took it off.

 

[Panic at the Back]

Finally!

Nope I had signed up for it on my America's Top 180 package and that is is exactly where it is now.

 

[OG6ix]

I only have the americas top 120 and I am getting it. On a side note the picture is absolutely beautiful. Nice and bright.

 

[Randall Graves*]

pathetic, the majority of dish subscribers have 120..and they put it on 180??

 

[WingedD]

Finally, I can watch my Wings.

 

[Jori]

It's back

Wow Dishnetwork just killed us with a season's worth of no OLN. I guess better late than never...Quick question I see PortlandRanger said the OLN is on his 120 pack, is that for everybody or do we have to get the 180 pack now?

Im pretty sure you can get it for the top 120, I don't have the top 180 because I don't have ESPNU.

You have to have The Top 180 or better. I could be wrong, but wasn't that the original agreement or was it on the Top 120 at the start of the season?

 

[OG6ix]

Ok, so I guess Im paying for AT180 yet I don't have ESPNU!

Dishnetwork employees are so damn inept, they told me I had to get ESPN gold or AT180 to get ESPNU, but ***...

Edit: Answered.

It was on the top 180 at the start of the season when OLN wouldn't show hockey.

Yes that was how it was originally, OLN's attempt to force Dish to change the original agreement is what costs them the whole season of hockey on Dish and they gained nothing for their stubborness.

Welcome neighbor. I live in North Pole Alaska. Yes I have some games on CI today and some have been shown all along. Less than half though. Today you have your choice between the Montreal and Carolina games, and Buffalo and Philly (channels 541-544). Call DISH and ask for OLN. It's the only way we will get all the games.

BTW the Avs game was on CI over the W/E

Do you have two dishs or one? I've only got a four footer and there was nothing listed on my CI channels. Of course, I think I'm only receiving programming from sat. 119 and I believe some of the CI games are actually broadcasted over sat. 110.

I only have have one dish but it has the capability to receive 2 satellites...119 and 110. I forgot about that. My understanding is 110 is only 9 degrees above the horizon from here so if you don't have a clear unobstructed view to the south for about 100 yards, you might not be able to get it. ANyway good news, we now have OLN.

Thansk leafsfan...Just talked with a couple of providers here today and they told me I needed to put another six footer on the roof in order to upgrade to the top 180 package and get OLN. Maybe next year...Now, I've just gotta find a bar playing the games and I'll be set for this spring.
