our son, who cannot get a reasonable price on internet in the country, wonders if he should be receiving a channel to pick up his local teams games (milwaukee Brewers)?

Any local RSN's (such as Fox Sports Wisconsin) are NOT included in AT120, but you CAN upgrade to AT120+ for $5/month more, & get them included.

To get your local rsn, you need at least 120+. They are not included with 120.

Another option would be Dish Latino Dos (which includes RSNs) [http://www.dish.com/entertainment/packages/dish-latino-dos/] for $44.99/month. However, the channel lineup differs from America's Top 120 as Dish Latino Dos does not have the English ESPN, ESPN 2, ESPNews, and ESPN U. ESPN, ESPN 2, and ESPNews are in Dish Latino Max [http://www.dish.com/entertainment/packages/dish-latino-max/] for $57.99/month.

I believe that America's Top 120 Plus has Fuel and Fox Soccer Channel (which are not included in America's Top 200).

I informed him of this, thank you....Now, today, he tells me it was a $14 increase per month. I don't understand and neither does he. I can only think that the charge was the $5/mo and $9/mo for multi sport pack which he doesnt need (or want) to receive the local RSN.

Can anyone shed some light on this situation, pls?
Thank you in advance

Unless he is trying to get an RSN that is not included in his dma, this does not make sense. If you is trying for an RSN not in his local dma, then adding the Multi-sport pack would require 120+ in order to add it and thus $5 + $9 to get the one channel he may want. You should advise him to verify the pro games may be blacked out.

Thank you, Gary. I seem to forget additional thing or two in a post and it happened again here. He is aware of the Multi-sport as he was exposed to it while he lived with me and the mrs. I suppose he can try to resolve over the long wait phone call or maybe one of the DIRT members can help out

Check his Zip code on the Dish website. May be outside the Brewer's market normally, but get them with the MSP as an extended area.

it may be on 1 of the alteriernate newtworks two. dish doesnot carry fs wisconsin all the time all day only when something is on like a bucks brewers game. god luck. if not get it be sure you have 120 plus and then check alternatives they maby on there.
