The Diamondbacks game Monday, April 26 against the Colorado Rockies will be shown on Orbitel channel 71, Fox Sports Arizona Plus, to accommodate the Suns playoff game the same night. The Suns will host the Trailblazers for game 5 on Orbitel channels 29/829HD with the 7pm pre-game and tip off at 7:30pm.

Orbitel Communications provides Maricopa residents with coverage of the Phoenix Coyotes, Phoenix Suns and Arizona Diamondbacks games through its affiliation with Fox Sports Arizona. All Orbitel customers who subscribe to Orbitel’s expanded level of cable TV service will be able to see both Fox Sports Arizona and Fox Sports Arizona Plus without any additional equipment or fees.

Fox Sports Arizona Plus is a temporary channel. Orbitel will continue to program the alternate channel as long as the Fox Sports programming conflicts exist so that Orbitel customers can watch their favorite teams.

As future announcements for game conflicts become known, Orbitel will post updates on its website, www.Orbitelcom.com, under its OrbitelNews section and also send out email notices to its customer base.
