Well, wondering today about DISH or Direct TV for the Lopez Mateos area of BCS.
Too cold and windy for too many days now and looking for options. . .
I have Sky with the main package and the noticias package for 320 pesos per month - like 60 channels with most in Spanish.
Thought maybe a DISH or DIRECT Subscription might yield a few more viewing options.bill erhardt - 3-20-2012 at 08:43 AM
I tried Turner - Dish - Direct, and nothing at all, dissatisfied with those alternatives. Then, subscribed to Star Choice, now Shaw Direct, Canadian
satellite service. I find it better in Baja than Direct or Dish in the U.S.
You can either subscribe to Shaw Direct yourself, or get a receiver and dish and piggy back on somebody else's service.CJ - 3-20-2012 at 09:01 AM
I use Shaw Direct [Canadian] in Lopez. Works fine though twice as much as SkyBCSTech - 3-20-2012 at 09:19 AM
Let me know if you need help getting equipment or account setup.Pompano - 3-20-2012 at 09:27 AM
Confirming Shaw as a good choice.
Just visiting now with some new residents of Asuncion...they use Shaw and love it, compared to Sky, Direct (which sucks here in Coyote Bay), and Dish.BCSTech - 3-20-2012 at 09:30 AM
Nice thing about it is that one small dish gives you both SD and HD. Can;'t do that with Dish in BCS.Floatflyer - 3-23-2012 at 03:23 PM
I have both in southern Baja, Star Choice and Dish. Alan is correct in that with Star Choice you need a normal size satellite dish while with DISH TV
you will need a sat dish much larger.
With Star Choice I get Washington state US networks and Detroit. I have found Star Choice to be more flexible in channel packaging than DISH. I
still prefer DISH for other content and, at least for the near future, like to have both.msteve1014 - 3-23-2012 at 04:15 PM
There is another Mexican sat tv provider other than sky, isn't there? I know I have seen a different name on dishes in town. I just can not remember
the name. Any info. on them?Mula - 3-23-2012 at 04:18 PM
VE TV is only in Spanish - all channels. Low cost for locals. No English channels. And not many package choices.msteve1014 - 3-23-2012 at 04:21 PM
Thank youBCSTech - 3-23-2012 at 04:37 PM
Also Dish Network Mexico is a competitor to SKY, and nothing like Dish Network US. About all they have in common is the logo.rts551 - 3-23-2012 at 04:44 PM

Not true. we have sky VE and get channels in English. 2 movie (Golden), couple of sports,Nat Geo, Biography, fox and Sony. Not many but what do
