Dishnetwork Horseracing channel
 

Has anyone purchase this feed from Dish Network? My understanding is; this is the replacement for the special dish you had to purchase years ago to get the direct feed of the racetracks which includes Harness and Greyhound racing feed.

I see Dishnetwork is offering this for $50 per month and I am really thinking about getting it. I always have a problem with online feed crashing on big race days and it's just too much damn talking on TVG and HRTV.

Yeah. I really want to pay DISH an extra $600 a year, and deal with all their CONTRACT BULLSHIT, because TS, presently providing ALL the live feeds I could ever want, crashes once a year. This sounds like the way go. :rolleyes: Next, I'm going to start paying $5 a day (or whatever it is) for DRF pps, rather than getting the BRIS for free.

I recommend it.

Thanks Hockey, I have not spoken with anyone who has it and was wondering if it's worth getting. I rather spend the 50 bucks so I won't have to listen to TVG touting picks from clowns who never hit a horse that paid more than 5-2.

I just called Dishnetwork and they are shipping the receiver I need in order to get the feed. Just in time for Saratoga and Delmar.

What is TS?

Thanks

I dont understand why anyone would pay 50 bucks a month for live track feeds. Hit the mute button on HRTV/TVG and watch the race or just watch the races online.

I won't pay 1 cent, let alone $50, to view races I already pay 20% to bet on.

:tro:

Have had RTN (Race Track Network) for two years. It is the only way to bet horses from home comfortably. I have three TV's on the wall and two receivers hooked to RTN with different signals. You know how much time to post so you shouldn't ever get shut out and the only talking comes from the host tracks (ie: Andy from NYRA). No jumping from track to track that you have to put up with from TVG and HRTV. Computer feeds are fine but I prefer the larger screens on TV's. Well worth the investment to me.

This is awesome. :)

HRTV and/or TVG spends way to much time showing the hosts in the studio. I think it was one of the "derby prep" days where several tracks were showing good stakes races and HRTV was only showing the hosts and would go to the track just as the horses were about to break. It's nice to have a little lead-in time of the track feed as sort of an alert if you wanted to bet that race.

Far less headaches than putting up with those guys and their large egos. Nothing like having a live track feed on a 46" screen. I'm spoiled!!

well myself i work on the road so very little home time and trying to watch the races online can be a problem with wifi not good connects and slow speeds lead to stop video and and so on.
so i believeit would be good for me and other people who play from the road.

This is my thoughts, if you bet and win a few tax tickets through out the year. This would count as an off-set on the winnings because just like you need racing forms and programs to prove you made those bets if you were cashing at the track or tin can hub...this is the only problem with betting from home Twins spires and Xpress Bet already has your sss#, one thing I miss through the years betting at the track was; under $5000 scores I did use 10% er's...most of them was mutual tellers.

You can have that with your internet connection as well. The 21st century is amazing and whatnot.

Is that set up good for porn too?:D

Probably, I'm to busy trying to make a score however!!:$:

What's her name?:D
