does this mean that cbssn and gac will only be in the 9000 range? I never even go there in my guide, seems real inconvenient to me.

no

 

[Tampa8]

No, CBSSN in HD (or SD) is at 158. I just don't see the reference to the HD in the report. GAC is at 167.

 

[Mr Tony]

With the future possible opening of channel 152, I want to speculate or predict:

-- NBC Sports Network alternate
-- MLB Network alternate

I would say a split for both or maybe MLB & NHL Net Alt. Thats what Directv does

-- or maybe that country music video channel that was on DirecTV a few years ago....something like AFTV......I think that is what is was called......

Artists and Fan Network? Thats now the Country Network which is a OTA subchannel

Thanks, I just noticed in my guide that the new channels are there. Earlier it just showed the 9000 so I was confused.

With the future possible opening of channel 152, I want to speculate or predict:

-- Universal Sports
-- NBC Sports Network alternate
-- MLB Network alternate

With the future possible opening of channel 167, I want to speculate or predict:
-- CMT Pure Country
-- or maybe that country music video channel that was on DirecTV a few years ago....something like AFTV......I think that is what is was called......
-- Fuse
--I don't think it would be another MTV or VH1 unless they do some changing around of channels....

Anyone else having any other predictions?

fuse would be awesome! or FEARnet ( i know. not in the right group,lol )

 

[digiblur]

Not sure why we didnt get the real report yet so I am posting this one until it gets here.

Nice surprised, Smithsonian HD is coming back?!

What was wrong with it?

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Don't know...

It kept skipping the message saying it was already posted. So keeping an eye on it. I also reset the message pointers

 

[Tampa8]

Why is there no reference to CBSSN HD? Am I missing it?

 

[dan188]

fuse wont happen. its part of the msg dispute. when msg pulled them off twc fuse was gone too

We got AMC HD despite the ongoing Voom dispute. So, I'd never say it completely won't happen due to the dispute.

anything is possible

As long as Cablevision requires providers to carry FUSE with MSG, FUSE is not coming back to those who dropped/lost MSG unless Cablevision backs off the 53% rate hike.

MTV Hits would be possible since Dish has a pretty good relationship with Viacom. But they would have to open up the MTV Digital Suite to satellite providers first....

I agree mtv hits would be a better option since they show videos around the clock insted of jersy shore or whatever the want to show

 

[kstuart]

gimme a "S"
gimme a "O"
gimme another "O"
gimme a "N"

what's that spell?????

A beer to anyone who can youtube their local cheerleaders doing that cheer !

 

[bnewt]

could someone explain the advantage of moving CBS sports from 152 to 158? what does it gain Dish?

also, any idea when Smithsonian might be turned on?

It's probably to give them room to add MLBN Alternate next to MLBN.

 

[Supertv]

i think more sowtime channels in HD and Smithsonian

 

[bnewt]

still don't understand why switching channels gives them any more room

 

[Mr Tony]

switching channel numbers allows dish to put channels of same typoe next to each other

would seem kinda stupid to have MLB Net at 151 and MLB alt (as example) at 158
Or when they moved KTLA from 232 to 233 because RFD TV (at 231) is launching Rural TV and Dish picked it up come 2/15 it will be on 232. Again common types next to each other
