TSN2 available

Well it says it's on channel 1 and 59

The long battle between Rogers Cable and TSN is over, meaning all Rogers subscribers will be able to watch this week's Blue Jays-Red Sox series.

The two sides came to an agreement this afternoon after nine months of negotiations over TSN2, the digital sports channel that launched last August.

The three-game series, which starts Tuesday, will be available to Rogers analog subscribers on channel 59 and to digital subscribers on channel 1.

Fans of the first-place Blue Jays had been panicking since the team announced earlier this month that the crucial series against Boston and two other games not scheduled for regular television coverage had been sold to TSN2. Had that deal not been made, those with digital boxes could have seen the Boston-produced game broadcasts on the Rogers preview channel.

But since no deal to carry TSN2 was in place, only those with the Rogers sports package would have been able to see those games.

The two sides had been at loggerheads since TSN2 launched, depriving Rogers subscribers of watching 24 Toronto Raptors games, several auto races and tennis tournaments. Most other cable companies and both satellite services in the country have been carrying TSN2 for months.

TSN and Rogers Cable confirmed on Sunday that they have come to an agreement on distribution for the TSN2 service.

Beginning on Tuesday, TSN2 will be available to Rogers subscribers on a free preview on Rogers Digital Channel 1. At the end of the month, TSN2 will be available to Rogers Digital VIP cable subscribers at its permanent channel location on channel 98. As part of the agreement, TSN2 HD will be available to customers who subscribe to TSN and have the HDTV Specialty Theme Pak.

TSN2 will be available to Rogers customers Tuesday

Gurk · 05-18-2009, 03:27 PM

What channel? DOn't tell me 59 because that's the same as 30

N64 · 05-18-2009, 04:05 PM

I have rogers digital and i checked 98 and it wasn't working...however, when i tried 59 i think it was tsn2 cause it was different from what was going on tsn (channel 26) so i guess it's finally here

EDIT: just checked the listings on tsn's website and it is tsn2

...the CIS awards are on atm ...it'll probably be on channel 98 tomorrow

Gurk · 05-18-2009, 04:24 PM

You get TSn on channel 26, I get it on 30

Formless · 05-18-2009, 07:18 PM

I think it's a preview if you don't buy the package.

Sick, Wicked and Nasty! · 05-19-2009, 07:06 AM

If you already pay for the Rogers VIP package you'll get it. If you don't have the Rogers VIP package you'll have to upgrade and pay $60/month to watch TSN2. Fuckin' Rogers.

Do we know what number the TSN HD channel will be? Are there any left in the low 400's? I forget what TSN HD is now.
