    Future of HD locals on 118.7

    Yes they were originally aded in Dec. 2006 on the 118 Sat as Iceberg stated to get more customers. No cable systems outside of Pittsburgh city proper were even offering locals in HD then. The COMCAST system in Oil City only began offering Pitt HD locals in April '09. I agree they will probably...

    More HD to move from 61.5 to 72.7?

    I agree, but sometimes after 58 yrs and a head of gray hair you know when to stop trying to make a point. You can dress them up but you can't take them out!

    More HD to move from 61.5 to 72.7?

    Postings above are correct in the apparent non communication with DISH and the retailers/installers.

    What Can I Change?

    I currently have 2 dishes, one with Sats 110/118/119 and one ( a wing dish) with 61.5. I tried to get an upgrade to pick up the 72.7 Sat but I can not get a clear shot of 129 so I still need the 61.5 wing dish. The local installation Tech advised you can not input 5 Sats into the DP44 switch...

    Better signal strength??

    Check the settings on your HD TV set. Maske sure you are displaying the 720P/1080I settings. You have to go into the actual TV set menu to do that.

    Any Word When Pittsburgh Hd Go Live?

    Same audio synch problem w/KDKA up here in Oil City! It seems to be much better than when I had installation of the DISH 1000+ on 12/16. So they must be tweaking something but its still not where it should be .No problem w/4, 11 or 53 on the audio synch.:)

    118.75 angle question

    The 118.75 degree SAT sits farther to the SW and LOWER on the horizon. So here in good old NW/SW PA its harder to hit it line of sight. I had the same problem in Oil City. That's why we moved the dish 35FT from the house into the front yard to hit the 118.75 SAT. Believe me its not easy out here...
