The channels were initially dropped due to claimed high costs for AMC channels despite a relatively low viewership, though it appears more connected to a separate wireless spectrum-related lawsuit that has now ceased.

Dish will pay $700 million in cash and its 20-percent stake in Voom, in exchange for 500MHz of “wireless multichannel video and data service spectrum licenses,” covering 150 million people in 45 markets.

A separate deal sees AMC Networks channels reappear on Dish, as part of a multi-year agreement. While AMC reappeared as of October 21, other channels including Fuse, Sundance, WE tv, and IFC will return from the start of November.
