As of today, the bandwidth on 5.1 has gone down from 19.8 mbps to 15 mbps, which I've never seen happen before, so the rumor that they've been testing Comet on 5.2 might be plausible. I haven't seen the test myself so I cannot confirm. I'll keep my eye on it..

Comet is ok as a freebie channel, BUT, if you watch an entire month of programming, you've seen everything they have. They just broadcast it over, and over, and over again.

The only thing I care about on Comet are the MST3k reruns, and they do seem to vary those quite a bit

What is this "Northwest" of which you speak?

Grit seems to have pretty decent penetration in the Pacific Northwest.

Hijacking one's own thread is not good form but there is a lot that going around.

All you have to do is look at the link he (mgsports) posted in his original message. You'll see he does it on other boards, too. He's gotten himself blocked and banned from other sites as well.

It is even worse form to talk about other forum members.

Just wait until he hijacks one of YOUR threads.

You of all people should talk. All you do is criticize other forum members all day. That's hilarious!

But at least it's a KC Topic and haven't been banned from any like this.
