DISH Network Charges Forward With Another Round of National HD Channel Launches

[Lkr]

I'm not getting Bravo, ESNEWS, Disney E, TDisney among others. I was getting pixelation and freezes on one of the new Cinemax channels. All are on 61.5 and showing signal strength from 15 to 24. I've rebooted and done a check switch, but no change. I guess it's time to call tech support.

im gonna give em a day or 2. it took a week for CNN HD to finally work here

FINALLY, HD has come back to Dish Network!!!! You smell what Charlie's cooking....

He'd have to give up his little 12" B&W set if he did that. Besides, this whole Color TV stuff is just a sham...it'll never catch on!

I agree. Who needs talking pictures when you have RADIO to free the imagination -- as long as you keep your eyes closed

Same here I guess they really rushed this batch out without fully testing the PQ etc.

You guys are getting all wet about all of these HD channels. Do you really think all of these channels are HD? Or just feeding SD to a big screen and calling it HD? How can all of these channels have already amassed HD libraries? Biography HD? ABC Family HD? Can't wait to see all those Full House episodes in HD! All of those Bravo reality shows are shot in SD. Are you guys on crack? This whole HD rush is a total sham and you are falling for it hook line and sinker. Every major cable network is B.S. ing you on HD content. Direct has been lying for over a year and now Dish is doing the same and you are all gushing over it. Wake up!

Dude, read some of the posts in this forum before you go insulting people about what they think is or isnt HD. People here arent as stupid as you seem to think. So sit back, relax, and enjoy the new channels. Ok?

Edit: after reading some of your others post, why do you have a problem with people making a choice to pay and view what they want? If you dont like, or think it isnt worth it, dont get it. Simple as that.

Oh yeah, where are those comments with people being excited about full house "in hd"? You said some of them were about that. Just curious

Didn't log in here last night. Decided today that I would call D* tomorrow to make the switch. Went out into my yard an hour ago to sight things up. Came in and flicked on my TV, with the guide set to "All HD" and was stunned to see all of the channels.

Guess I will hold off for a few days to reconsider ... and to evaluate the PQ of all of these HD channels.

No different than counting all the music, shopping and public interest channels in the SD packages. Once someone inflates numbers, all the competitors copy.
