This is going to be a great opportunity to show the world how beautiful, agile, funny or talented your dogs are! There will be an array of different events taking place on the day, and everyone is invited to come along and take part, or just come and watch – there will be lots to see, do, eat and drink!
     So please put the date in your diary and more importantly, have a chat with your dog now so that you can both prepare to win prizes and accolades at the show on March 15th . ALL proceeds from the Dog Show will go towards neutering programs, recycling and clean beach initiatives. The Baja Kennel Club website is coming soon which will feature all the events you can enter, so please look out for further announcements.

I have a medium sized box, 42” X 29” X 25-1/2” and approximately 25 lb. I’d greatly appreciate someone taking down to my older brother in La Ribera, Baja Sur - or somewhere close by. I live in San Mateo, CA although if it’s more convenient I can have the box sent to you. Barry

ANSWERS - DISCUSSIONS- This category must have name and/or email address.

   Dish TV Discussion:

     1)  Does somebody know if Dish is providing network programming again (ABC,NBC,CBS,FOX) in Baja for USA based accounts. The network stations used to be available via "All American Direct" until they went out of business last Feb. Werner, wschust33@gmail.com

     2)  Per your Slingbox Discussion in the Baja Pony Express. Following is more information about Dish Network TV service in Baja.

               Dish Network Programming Reception Outside The US
Most of Dish Network's core programming in standard and high definition is available outside the US with some exceptions. Not all Dish Network satellites have coverage outside the US, and most of the local network channels (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX, PBS, CW and UHF channels) are on narrow spot beams not receivable outside an 80-mile radius of each metropolitan area. However, there are some groups of local network channels from a few metropolitan ares that are available if you have a qualifying address in one of those areas and the right equipment.

There are currently three Dish Network satellites available throughout most of Mexico. Because of the weaker signals outside the US, reception of multiple satellites requires individual dishes for each satellite. Otherwise, a single dish can be positioned on one satellite (typically, Dish Network's 77° or 119° satellite).

77°W - This satellite carries about 80 of Dish Network's core programming channels in standard definition, and also carries Local Network channels in High Definition, including PBS, from seven metropolitan areas near the Midwest and east coast. This satellite can be picked up almost anywhere in Baja using a single, small, 50 cm dish and is the best choice for a single-dish/portable dish system.

119°W - This satellite carries most of Dish's core programming channels in standard definition, including the "Big Four" (ABC, CBS, NBC and FOX) Local Network channels from New York City (no PBS or HD). This satellite also supplies Dish Network's Electronic Programming Guide, required for Digital Video Recorder functions to work properly. It requires a 1.5 meter or larger dish. Reception from this satellite is required for the Hopper Whole-house HD DVR System.

129°W - This satellite carries many of Dish Network's core programming channels in High-Definition. It requires a 1.2 meter or larger dish.
More information on Channels carried by these satellites can be found here: 77° | 119° | 129° | Combined List

     Beware of anyone offering to sell you equipment and having you prepay them in advance for programming, either every six months or one year. These are either "stacked" accounts where several receivers are sharing the same account, or else they are pirated, tampered boxes. Either way these are risky because Dish's Account Audit Police will sooner or later detect and shut down these types of accounts and permanently render useless any associated receivers. When these types of accounts are shut down, the Dealer who provided them will frequently disappear and change their phone number. Their customers are left holding the bag with useless receivers, unable to receive the balance of programming they already paid for.  Always imperative to have your own Dish Network account that you can manage directly.
     You can get your own account and equipment installed in the US and bring down a receiver, or you can have the account setup and gear shipped to Baja for you. You will need a dish setup installed here, using one or more of the dish options mentioned earlier.
     Dish Network receivers are intended to be connected to a standard US telephone line or Internet connection. To avoid account audits, multiple receivers should all be connected to a standard or VoIP (Voice Over Internet) Internet telephone line with a US phone number (Typically Vonage, Net2Phone or MagicJack), or to an Internet connection with a US-based service provider (HughesNet or V-Sat).
