Link to the announcement: http://www.dishnetwork.com/campaigns...n-Albuquerque/

I'm just wondering how widespread this is. I am in south central NM and we get programming from the ABQ area.
I hope they get it resolved soon. Like by Wednesday - so I can watch American Idol

There is an easy fix; http://www.newmexicosatelliteman.com/ offers a great HD antenna for folks in the region who want to recieve those channels. Cool thing is that he travels all over the state (and southern CO too) installing them.

I got one myself.

*happy dance*
Yes, ours was back on this morning. I only missed one week of American Idol.
Dish Network and Lin Media agree, restore channels - Silver City Sun-News (http://www.scsun-news.com/silver_city-business/ci_17606554 - broken link)
