And yet just last week you said that they were only testing on 72.5 and they'd move them back to 61.5. Looks like your sources have a serious problem.

But really now, what the hell? How are they going to handle all those people who don't have an EA setup? Are we going to get a discount for not being able to get all the channels we're supposed to be getting? (Switching to EA isn't an option because then I wouldn't have my local channels, unless they move them to a CONUS beam.)

Are they sticking with 8 HD channels per TP.?

How do you know about this?Did they say it on the chat?

Please tell me that ESPNU hd is in ANY phase.

I would like to know the answer to this Question too!!!! I dont think that anybody on this site really knows the answer?

I'm guessing FSC+ HD will be in phase2? They must have a deal in place to get both up.

I think phase 5 will be adding all of the HD channels to Alaska and Hawaii.
