Can I watch Brewers games on FSN North?

[REVM1M]

I have Directv now , but wanted to cancel it & go to Dish Network because of more HD channels. But my only concern is , can I still be able to watch Brewers games on Dish as I watch them now on FSN North on Directv (CH#642)?

Yes,
You can watch Brewers, Bucks on Fox Sports North on Dish on some of the alt sports channels 445-453.

New to dish network. Do they show any games in HD from FSN North?

[AndrewP]

Not yet. But it was announced that Dish is planning to add all Fox Sports Net networks in HD starting this fall. I personally don't expect FSN going in the first group. But it should be on by Spring 2007.

I jus check Dish programming guide for tonight's game Brewers against Cubs and couldn't find it. There are no channels 445-453.

Ch. 445 today. If you don't have it, maybe you have Dish60 or Family pack? It is only from Dish60+ and up.

I don't understand why they don't leave the alternate feed on for the postgame.  Directv always did. That stinks. I would assume the pre-game isn't broadcast either.

thanks AndrewP.

Most of the times they don't, but sometimes they do have postgame show. It is interesting, but I noticed that when they have it it is always when our local team wins. They never show it after our local team lost.
