Looks like the official change happened around 4:00

I would not like to see less fishin'/huntin' but afraid that will be the case.

Also, mentioned here.
Versus is now NBC Sports Network, Watch CH 501 - DBSTalk.Com

The issue is the channel is 603

One of my R22's the banner says 501, one says 603.....weird

 

[charper1]

which ones say 501? all mine (all H series units) say 603

maybe its an issue with the non-'H' units?

 

[Mr Tony]

Here is from the weirdness zone

R22 in the living room with CE version 596....shows channel 603 in the banner
R22 in the computer room with SD GUI...shows 501 in the banner
no banner on H23

mine says 501 its just weird

If I click on the banner which says channel 501, it takes me to channel 603. HR24.

501 is HBO ....

Fwiw, on 603 on my HR24 shows NBCSports
When I go to 501 is says HBO !

Also, what about the overflow channels VS currently have, is NBC just taking them over as well, or are they being shut off ?

 

[charper1]

its just a brand change; I suspect everything basically will stay the same moving forward or maybe get better

 

[chances14]

also getting the banner that says channel 501. HR15

most likely just taking them over. NBC plans on showing every NHL playoff game this year so i would assume they will be needing those channels
