I have the local channels package on Dish. I think I am supposed to get CST but I can't find it. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Should be channel 421 on Dish if you are within 75 miles or so from Baton Rouge / New Orleans, and you have at least the top 200 package.

yes he does, or atleast he can. I have CST on Dish its channel 421. It's actually not part of the sports package, atleast it wasn't when I ordered it. It was part of the second tier. call them and specifically request it. Be persistent when you call. You may get a operator who tells you they don't offer it, but it is on there. The thing is its not offered outside of Louisiana and a couple of southern states so it gets overlooked sometimes.

You can't get it in Shreveport on Dish.
if you live outside of Baton Rouge and New Orleans you have to be so close to get it, or atleast that is what they keep telling me.

This...But there is ways to get around that. If you live outside of the range and would like to do this just let me know and I'll explain how. There are some cons to it...but well worth it if you are LSU and Hornets fan.

No. Someone talked about this a good while back. I think it has something to do with changing your billing zip code to one within the "CST range".

Its simple call and tell them you "moved" to Baton Rouge and give them an address. Keep the billing address the same so you still recieve your bill or just sign up for online billing.
