Just got this in my INBOX. Quote:
IMPORTANT CHANNEL MOVE!!
All the HD programs allocated in transponders 20 and 24 in satellite 129º will be transferred from satellite 129º to 110º starting Wednesday July 22nd. Also all the programs allocated in transponder 21 in satellite 61.5 will be transferred from satellite 61.5º to 77º also starting Wednesday July 22nd.

Well... If I was a betting man, I'd say they're making room for more local HD

But TP21 on 61.5 is currently in conus mode and could potentially be switched to spotbeam mode. TP21 can go on spotbeams 2, 4, 7, 11, 15, 17, 19, 20, and 22.

Indeed. With RSNs like FOX committing to going 100% HD over the course of the year, I really hope Dish is planning the channel capacity to keep up.

So if I'm interpreting this correctly - the channels on TP 21 of 61.5 will be the same as the ones transferring from 129 to 110?
Or else what happens to those with 61.5/110/119 setups?
