March 2nd, 2012 Sale
WILL NOT be viewable on
DISH Network Channel 219

NOTE:
Because the DISH TV signal is digitally encoded and makes two round-trips to space, a DISH Network broadcast can have a lag time ('latency') of as much as 3-5 seconds from the real time of the sale. If you plan to be bidding on cattle and are watching WVM on DISH Network, please turn down your TV volume and listen to the sale through the telephone or the WVM rep at the sale site.

Until early 2012, WVM sales will continue to be available on C-Band satellite dishes (the big ones).

While continuing to broadcast on DISH...in early 2012, we will be switching to Ku-Band satellite transmission and will no longer be using C-Band for transmission.  

We also remain very excited about the possibilities the Internet has opened up for marketing and many other aspects of the cattle industry. With a broadband Internet connection, you can view Western Video Market auction broadcasts on the Internet
...in very nearly REAL TIME.

We have also enabled Internet Bidding as well as phone bidding for all WVM sales.

We feel strongly about the benefits of the video cattle auction and believe that selling cattle by video should remain affordable and accessible for Western cattlemen. We appreciate the support we've received over the years from both buyers and sellers and we believe all the outlets mentioned above make Western Video Market auctions available to as many of you as possible.
We appreciate what you all do for us. Thanks!
