When 77 shutdown the software on my 211z (connected to a EA1000.4) was not updated. I don't remember the exact software version on it but I believe it was at least a year old at the time. If I were to guess there was/will be a killswitch baked into the current firmware version of the VIP's that fires the day the satellite is programed to go dark.Jul 20th, 129 will basically cease to exist. Software updates (not sure about VIPs) will remove the 129 from Check Switches

I don't see the rest.
I did! When satellite TV is a hobby, it is fun!
All 5 Supers are now on 110/5...
I don’t have the superstations but looking at other SD only channels among my movie package’s I think you’re right, the quality does seem better from the conversion to MPEG4.They look pretty good for SD.

This is the data that I am able to see with regards to the transponders that have SD channels. Once again, only the channels I subscribe to or others have provided me info on, but a general trend could be created. The first number is the number of SD channels on the transponder last week when SD channels were MPEG2; the second number is once the SD channels changed to MPEG4 yesterday:With that all said, and I don’t really have the equipment to measure or prove this, my guess is that Dish both migrated the broadcasts to MPEG4 and reduced the bitrate while staying above the 5:1 ratio. Using the example from earlier, if the MPEG2 @ 5Mbps stream is set to MPEG4 @ 2.5Mbps, you would have a potential image quality improvement of 2.5x, and would use up half of the bandwidth compared to before, MPEG4 @ 1.67Mbps would look 1.67x better while taking one third of the bandwidth, so on and so forth.
Is there anything left on 129?

Will sat locations (105, 121, and 148) be removed from receivers in a future software upgrade especially if those sat locations are obsolete?
