EchoStar launches new service(Divi customer)......................... skyreport.com SkyVista From EchoStar and Loral Debuts This Week By the end of the week, EchoStar Communications and Loral Space and Communications will launch their joint SkyVista DTH service, a niche programming service targeted for North America and U.S. territories in the Caribbean. SkyVista will use Loral Skynet's Telstar 5 satellite, the bird once slated for the AlphaStar service that went dark in August of last year. While former AlphaStar customers can use their dish for the new service, they will need to buy a new receiver, an EchoStar spokesperson said. The SkyVista system itself will cost $399. EchoStar will charge $19.99 per month for the "Best of Satellite" offering, which will include up to 20 channels. SkyVista also can serve Hawaii and parts of Alaska. For more information on programming, see the SkyVista site at skyvista.com.
