So, what happened to the HD King, did he die.

He's got two satellites ready to go without launch vehicles thanks to the mishaps experienced by SeaLaunch and Proton. Watch late February

No Sats for DISH are now scheduled through the first quarter of 2008. You can go right to the last page to see the 1st Quarter 2008 launch projections.

I stand by what I said. You can refer back to this post around late Feb early March.

No DISH sats listed:

Spaceflight Now | Tracking Station | Worldwide launch schedule

no SeaLaunch slots open through end of 1st q:

Sea/Land Launch schedule - Viewing a thread

no Proton spots open thru end of 1st Q:

Plan of Russian launches - Viewing a thread

Echostar11 not even licensed as of yet:

FAA - Commerical Space Data - Upcoming & Recent Launch Data

So - pray tell, show some info or link to info - if there is a scheduled launch at SeaLaunch (Echostar 11) or Baikonur (AMC-14) there WILL BE public record somewhere.

Thanks.

I see Scobuck is trolling again.

He seems to have forgot that two launches were pushed back because of the explosions.

One will be going up Q1 tbe second Q2 and the third Q4.
I do wish they would update the schedule though.

Exactly. Echo Birds will be riding those launches.

2008 is going to be an interesting year for Echostar to say the least.

The question is of course then, how many new subscribers and existing E* subs are going to sign up or hang around until 2009 when all of the new satellites are in the sky and operational ? 14 -18 months is a long, long time.

Which ones will go up in each quarter Scott. Do you have that information? I saw that AMC 14 will go up first quarter of 2008, in the skyreport today, could that be one?
