Yup, those are the eleven new HD channels added to the 110 spot last month. As far as I know, everyone's been receiving them for a while now.

+1.
And dish apparently gets their WKYC feed from an antenna because during yesterday afternoon, WKYC was working on their antenna, which took their digital signal off line.
Dish left a nice message saying "We know this channel is unavailable, don't call us." on channel 3 during the outage.
Thus you don't have a Turbo package.
Thus the Platinum Package does not matter either.
boo hoo, want a wamburger with your french cries? if you were a real sports fan you would have installed directv long ago.

My mistake I have classic gold 250 with turbo gold plus platinum.
Having a classic whatever package with the HD add on package, will give you Fox HD. Myself having just Turbo Silver (HD only) does not get Fox News HD.

This whole conversation shows what a big bucket of fail the DISH marketing department is. People don't even understand the packages that they already have, let alone the other choices they have.
Remember the early days of "DSS"? When you had to buy some channels from DirecTV and others from USSB? And DirecTV had that weird package that was intended to be an add-on to cable...so if you just ordered the cheapest package, you would get channels like Movieplex, but not things like USA and CNN? That was less confusing than DISH now.
Somehow I can't imagine Dish keeping the Austin HD Locals on BOTH 129 and 61.5 very long. So my guess is that your receivers (and mine) will choose 129 nearly* 100% of the time -- soon.

* not 100% of the time, since sometimes they won't be able to "pick" any sat during a Texas Frog Strangler
I am still on the old package, haven't moved my 148 dish yet and have a legacy switch. I have lost this group of channels.

I don't know. They're already on the beam and some subs are pointed at 61.5 with double dish installations. It's not likely any other market could be placed on the 61.5 beam in that area. Things may change a couple years down the road but I don't see them taking the channels off the 61.5 spot beam.
