I have DISH with the Classic Bronze 100 plan.  It bugs the shit out of me how they stick a string of ESPN channels or the sprinkle the Spanish speaking channels in between the other channels without rhyme or reason.  Why don’t they create ranges for them like they do with the music channels?  Anyhoo, I finally figured out how to hide them.  Call me slow, but I thought others might like to know, too.

1. Click the Menu button.
2. Go into Locks.
3. Go into Channel Locks and select the channels you want to lock and save it.
4. Go into Hide Locks to hide the locked channels.  This hides them from the Guide, too.  If you don’t do this step, you’ll have to enter a pin number every damn time you land on one of the locked channels.
5. Channel locks only work when the system is locked so go into Lock System and set up a 4-digit pin.  Make sure you remember it, dumb ass. 

There.  Now those lame channels will be hidden.  If you want to get back in to add more, undo any or unlock the system, you’ll need your pin number.
