    Are the Rockets out of town games gonna be on channel 55(The Tube) ? I live out of town and usually get the NBA League Pass but I'm working on something else. Can someone tell me if this is the station?
    Thanks

    I'm pretty sure I remember reading the report a couple of months ago that the road games this year will be on Ch. 55. (the Tube) That should be it.

    That's just great since I can't pickup 55 on an antenna. I guess that's the price you pay for having satellite instead of crappy Time Warner. Hopefully 55 won't get it. I was hoping for ch 51 because I can at least pick that station up. Are you sure it's final?

    It's definite, I think til 2003, check out the story at the Rockets website, www.rockets.com.

    Does anyone have any suggestions on how to pick up Rockets road games? Unfortunately I have Dish Network and they of course don't offer NBA League Pass and half the friggin city including myself cannot tune in channel 55. Anyone have a power antenna that they've tried and been successful with? Any suggestions are appreciated.

    51 is all screwed up when the Astros come on.
    55 covers the Comets,Rockets and Cougars.

    Is it possible for you to subscribe to the Dish Network Regional Sports Package? That way you can catch all Rockets home games on Fox SW - as long as it is the Houston feed and watch some Rockets road games from other teams regional networks (for example Fox Ohio - Rockets @ Cavs).

    I'm kinda glad they switched. I was in heaven last year catching ALL the games at school and that majorly screwed my study habits. Now all I need is the will to not bring a TV.
