First off, can anyone clue me in on channels 5470 through 5490, or so. Doing this off memory, as I'm not able to check my HD/DVR right now. Last night, I was searching for a flick, and saw Ran on a channel called World, on, I believe 5478. Cool! Well, the channel worked, but it sure wasn't Ran. I checked other channels around that, and others also didn't match what was supposed to be on. I guess it's good that we're getting these channels....though I have no clue what they are, or what's on them, currently. Dish's online programming guide didn't even list the channels, last night.
Also, why are channels repeated up in the 5000's? Locals, FX, etc, etc.
Lastly, I just don't get the local channels and no HD. All my locals are in HD, on Comcast and Charter. DirectTV has the locals in HD, I'm told. Yet, being the 29th ranked area, Dish doesn't have them in HD? What is the hold up? Are they planning to add a lot more? Soon? Very soon? This is most annoying, coming from Comcast, and now watching a much inferior picture, for sports.
