I was looking into getting a Roku player to use to be able to watch MLB Extra innings, and as I understand it you subscribe to MLB online then hook the Roku player to your internet connection and then into your TV you can get the games on your TV. Have any of you used this method to get MLB...

Yes Digi I checked the website and it says New Orleans has HD locals, plus Fox (ch 8) which was listed as SD on the uplink a few weeks back is also listed as HD avaible so that uplink was either a typo are since that uplink they reached an agreement with the local Fox network. Now I have mu...

Digi, have you heard if the New Orleans Fox Channel (ch 8) will be HD or SD, because last week when they were uplinked, NBC, CBS, and ABC channels said MPEG4 HD, but the Fox channel said MPEG4 SD. We were hoping that was a typo, but have you been able to find out if we will get Fox in HD, or SD...

This weeks uplink report should be very interesting, that is assuming they start upllinking Ciel 2 on Wednesday

That brings up a question I have about the conversion to digital. When the locals go to all digital and shut off the Analog, will that give them more power to use to transmit the digital signal? What I am asking is since many stations have been transmitting both analog and digital for awhile...

Hey DBSorgie, I noticed on your new list you had early 2009 next to New Orleans. Have you seen something that says this is the case, because I have been waiting for the New Orleans HD locals for 2 years now, and I hadn't seen anything saying we would be getting them in early 2009. Man I hope you...

Digi, since they are puting the Lafayette, La. HD locals on Ciel 2 at 129 do you think they will put the New Orleans HD locals, whenever they do provide them, on 129 also? I thought in the past you said they would probably be on 61.5. I hope they put them on 129 because then I won't need to get...

I have a locals related question I hope someone on the forum can answer. I currently can't get my locals over ther air, (and of course Dish doesn't carry them) because I live a little too far from the transmission tower. My question is when they switch to digital, will I like have a better...

So if they are putting CSTNO HD on 129 is that a good sign that we might get the New Orleans HD locals soon, and that they will be on a 129 spotbeam instead of 61.5?

Digi have you heard any update on when dish will carry the New Orleans HD locals?

Can I use a sling box to send my Dish HD signal from my receiver in the living room on the first floor of my house to my second HD TV in the second floor bedroom, and can it be done wirelessly?

Scott what about our local HD channels? As I understand it once dish gives New Orleans its HD locals they will be on a 61.5 spotbeam, so if that happens, and I really don't want a wing dish, then wouldn't I have to go to EA to get everything I get now (A250) plus my HD locals?

Scott do you have any idea how long before it will be available to existing customers? Are we looking at a couple months or will it be more like 6 months to a year or God forbid longer. And please no one answer with the infamous it will be available to existing subs "SOON"

Yes that is it thanks

I need to buy some HDMI cables. I remeber a company many of you guys recomended on the forum, but I can't remeber the name. All I remember is that it satarted with an "M" Micro something I think. Can someone shoot me they name of the company. Thanks

I agree, put all the HD in a set number range such as 94xx wether or not they have a SD counterpart.

According to Digi N.O. was suppose to use the Jackson, Ms spotbeam. Plus I don't understand why Dish can't come to agreement with the N.O. locals , becuase Direct has had our locals for over a year. I guess it is the Charlie factor, his ability to piss people off is unblievable. He has probably...

I feel your pain. We here in New Orleans were originally scheduled for HD locals in late 2006, then it was to be the fall of 2008, now we have disappeared off of the schedule, and like you Direct has had our locals for over a year. I don't understand what is up with Dish

They have a new dish it is called 1000.4 for eastern arc

Does 129 have any spot beams, and if yes where do they cover?

Dennispap I wish they would do that, but new Orleans wasn't even on Dish list of HD locals comming this summer and fall, so no telling how long before we get our HD locals here in the Cresent City

About how long will it take to move E 2 and E 6 once they actually start moving them? Are we talking days, weeks or months to get them to 77 and 72?

Will it just be a spare at 110, or will it have spotbeams for locals, or will the old 110 be moved somewhere else?

The bad thing is that 90% of the people in the New Orleans area will see this on channel 75, and if they don't know about Satelliteguy they will think it is the truth. I hope Dish gets tons of calls from the New Orleans area subs asking to get thier HD locals now that they are available. Maybe...

Yes Bob things are getting better, but some areas very slowly. However, the population is not that much less than pre katrina, and the people who didn't come back were lower income people who didn't spend $100 a month for Dish. Actually where I live there are more Dish customers than they had...
