Verified the local channels on the Dish web site. Verified (by tuning to the channel) that Gospel Radio is now on Sky Angel. These channels are now available to their respective packages.

The Korean channels are available as a free preview, though the Dish Web site has no mention of the new channels yet.

See ya

My wife is Korean and she likes the new channels, she finds it interesting to see whats going on in her home country even though she can not remember too much of the language. :)

Which bird are these channels on? Also does anyone know if a person can use Clubdish certs just to sign up for internationals? I ask because I manage an apartment community with a very strong South Korean population and I bet they'd love the channels, so I see this as a way to pass out my clubdish certs and earn earn earn!!!

Hey these Korean channels are wonderful. They show such entertaining programs and are a must for all Koreans. Only 1 problem I find with them.......... I don't speak Korean lol.

I've been informed of the package pricing...

Arirang by itself is still going to be $14.99 a month.

The three new channels will sell for $29.99 as a package.

The three new channels and Arirang will sell for $36.99 as a package.

Thanks to the e-mailer for investgating and digging up the pricing.

See ya

Well, the Koreans are still free on the 721(it is slow to get updates sometimes). :)

The Philadelphia channels were already available at 61.5. They just changed the local channel numbers. They did change the DISH Network Philadelphia channel numbers at 129, though.

WINK-TV Fort Myers CBS apparently became available today.
