    What kind of receiver do you have? There is an alternate channel that carries it, I believe it is 449.

    The spot begging with DISH/DTV viewers to "hit the guide button" was pretty amusing.

    i can watch the game just fine, is either on the FOXSW channel or one of the ALT channels, however, the game doesnt come on until it starts, meaning that i will miss the pregame and postgame, im just wondering if there are any alternative to watch those

    Not on Dish. I have not been able to watch post-game show after Rocket games when they are shown on alternate Fox Sports channels.

    (That "push the Guide button" is pretty annoying, especially since it is being shown on the alternate channel already ... why not give congrats to those viewers who have already figured out to find the appropriate channel.)

    You guys should've gone with Direct TV. I've had the NBA league pass since the 97 season and I get every game and most of the pregame and post game stuff. Most, not always

    You guys are lucky to be in the area where dish carry the FSNSW and don't black out the rockets game.

    I install the dish(before install I ask the seller do they blackout rockets game? they told me it will show in my area(in NJ)) but after installation It all blackout. so I have to buy LP to get it.

    You guys should happy.

    Now I have comcast cable basic, comcast internet and dish network. :mad:
