    Dish HD Locals via Satellite a travesty

    In Albuquerque at least. We get 3 HD locals via Sat, ABC, NBC and Fox. Only NBC works properly. ABC is still plagued by green pixelations during HD Fox is so badly audio/video synched as to be unwatchable. I compare it to OTA HD from the same sources and those sources are...

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    So were you recording House OTA? I actually was recording it through the Sat HD link, so apparently it was a Fox 2 issue. This happened during the World Series as I recall too.

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    KOAT always a nuisance. Seems like I hear a lot from around the country on ABC HD locals as well. Latest issue I had was KASA 2 HD feed during House from Tuesday. My 622 recorded a perfect 1 hr and 4 minutes of blank. Then it promptly came back on around 9:04. I don't understand why this...

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    And I can't qualify for HD West, I'm still able to OTA KRQE with fair success. Just surprised this is dragging this long and sorry it wouldn't seem to be that much of a priority for a relatively small DMA coupled with a relatively small company owning the station involved.

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    End of March and still no CBS. Why would I guess this discussion isn't a high priority for Dish?

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    I'm able to get KRQE OTA, but just would like to have everything on the sat. Be especially helpful to my brother in Placitas, no OTA for him!

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    Still no HD KRQE (CBS affiliate). Anyone heard anything new about a Lin-TV and Dish issue?

    Talked to a KRQE person yesterday and as far as they've been told, discussions are still underway.

    I wasn't going to say anything about it being Linn, but it was on their website. Now on the bright side, the Gannett war seems to be ending from what I've read elsewhere, so perhaps there's hope. I'm with you on the Master's thing, although I can maintain an OTA for KRQE if need be.

    Albuquerque and New Mexico HD

    I've got a 622 through Worldlink here in ABQ and still don't have SAT based CBS HD local. Fortunately I can rabbit ear CBS HD, and that's usually solid. As far as the 622, it is "pretty good" with some serious video/audio synch issues currently on DVRd HD material. Oddly that can be...

    Which 5 cities are next?

    Oh please let it be Albuquerque Given how skitzy my OTA is right now for 4 and 13, please let it be ABQ to feed the 622 I have! :D

    * Note - Do Not Call For Mpeg4 UNTIL FEB 1ST*

    Some CSRs still didn't get the memo, one I talked to today was still singing the "942 will get the MPEG 4" song. Can't wait to see how this will play out with me going live Jan 20th with a 942 set up.

    UPLINK Activity For the week of Jan 01 06 CES WEEK!

    Confused in ABQ By posting what you have about the Uplink involving several Albuquerque channels on the satellite, does that mean that MPEG-4 receivers would actually receive that, or is this more or less only a placeholder for future activity by Dish? I've been wrestling with which sat...
