    My guess is that it would be something for those Olympics channels, just telling people where they can find additional coverage, if that truly is what those channels are for.

    Is this the entire uplink for the week? If it is, considering how many of those changes are remaps, this has to be one of the smallest weekly uplinks I can remember.

    What is the Big 10 at 438 - will it be moving one channel over? It still shows as 439 for me with no message that it is moving. Good to see they put NHL Alternate closer to the Sports Alternate section on 477.

    I didn't know that you could get that satellite alone - I always thought 118 was an additional satellite you got. I thought everyone in the US had some combination of the 6 satellites from WA/EA, then the 118 was just extra.

    Why would they choose to put a PPV movie on 118? And a single PPV movie at that?

    Looks like our Senate in Illinois passed the Satellite Tax, with the rationale of helping the schools. Now it waits to go to the House for approval. Senate passes 5 percent tax on satellite TV to help schools - Chicago Sun-Times I'm curious, but how many other places have a satellite tax? I...

    This is for Illinois... I got this from Dish Today: The Illinois legislature is considering a tax hike that will force you to pay 5% more EVERY month for the DISH service you love. In this economy, many Illinois families have cut back on eating out, going to the movies, and attending...

    I am guessing you are getting the White Sox/Rangers game on MLB Network. Here in Chicago, MLB Network is blacked out, but I can the Yankess/Rays on the Alternate channel. I don't think anyone gets both the MLB Network and the Alternate channel at the same time.

    MLBSZ? I see MLB Network Alt is still on 5451, so is this something different?

    I just logged into my account and went to the Order PPV, and they have "Cricket: IPL 2012 All Inclusive Package HD" for $59.99, whereas the SD version is $49.99. So it looks like that is what it is for.

    Transponder Changes: EchoStar11 110W TP 22 ConUS beam changed from 20000 QPSK 7/8 to 21500 8PSK 2/3 I like that - it looks like Dish now has an entire transponder free on Western Arc for additional HD channels.

    I see all those HD source channels were added for sports. Does that mean they are going to have the capacity to show now 24 games in HD at any given time? I believe currently there are 16.

    Since all these SD channels were moved off, and I see the final line of this uplink says changed to 8PSK 2/3, does that mean this transponder will now be used for HD? Or does Dish have another plan for this transponder?

    Being in Chicago, I wasn't blacked out of the main NHL Network game last night, but if I were blacked out, I would have had no idea that there was this extra channel at 5449. With the big ten alternates, in the program description, it would say something like "College Football: Additional games...

    Is there any plan to put NHLAlt on 158 so it is right next to NHL Network? Sort of how the ESPN Alt's are in the ESPN range? I wouldn't think to look on channel 5449 for a game.

    What does the 182 in brackets mean? In the other entries, what is inside [] indicates whether it is MPEG4 or MPEG2. I have never seen a 182 in the brackets before. 412 - RSNET [182] added to EchoStar14 119W TP 18 ConUS beam (NA) 412 - RSNET [182] added to Nimiq5 72.7W TP 05 ConUS beam (NA)

    I believe MSG was 412. I see that is RSNet it is next to Prime Ticket. Isn't there going to be a new RSN in California at some point in the future? I remember reading something about the Lakers going to a new RSN.

    That is interesting. We have a bunch of subchannels here in Chicago, and every single one of them say "Digital Service" or "No Info Available"

    So for the subchannels, do yours actually have the programs listed, or does it just say "Digital Service" for everything?

    Is there a way to see what markets have the OTA subchannel EPG data? Clicking on "The List" link at the top, I can't find any channels that are in the 10000's. And when I click on that specific spotbeam link in the uplink post, there is no channel 14074 listed. Is there another listing...
