    Has channel 51 solved their problem with the Dish network? Can I watch the game tonight on the Dish network.

    It is highly doubtful that channel 51 will be on Dish Network any time in the forseeable future. Dish Network has no incentive to let them on and 51 doesn't have the money to push for it. Unless the FCC forces Dish Network to allow them on, don't count on it happening this year.

    I got Warner cable and the reception was not that great. Then my cousin suggested to get a converter to focus the channel and it works, Ican watched the game better and looks crispier than ever!:D

    TW Cable looked great the first game...last game it was sharp thru most of the game with fits of fuzziness at times.
    All of this without a converter..

    So far I dont really have much to b**** about with KNWS...Thank a non-specific diety...:D

    I would tend to agree, except for the following, which was in the Rockets press release about their new broadcast partnership:

    Because of NBA League Pass, DirecTV *is* putting the KNWS Rockets game up on the birds. Normally that broadcast would be blacked out in the city. Perhaps they came to some agreement making the games available for all subscribers in the Houston DMA?

    Whether or not this is the case, DISH users are still probably SOL, as I don't believe NBALP is offered on that system.
