    Did anybody noticed the name change on channel 499?

    something fishy going on with dtvs signal, older receivers and e-86s going bad

    I got some info on this (i think). On feb 28 I ordered an mpg4 set top box and the new 5lnb dish for local HDs. The rep at direct tv said april will be the date local HD should be available. I agree that if you can get local HD over the air, why bother... the problem is that I live nexdt to...

    Memoirs of an Ex Voomer

    Thanks for all the great feedback. Let me clarify myself, since it seems perhaps I miscommunicated. I did not say (or wanted to say) that I like standard deffinition better (come on, not even my grandma is that crazy). What I wanted to say was that the IMAGE quality of the Hd content in DTV...
