[kstuart]

Setanta Free Preview is on, channel 406.

Burnley vs Manchester United in one hour.

IIRC, Scott said "through 8/26".

 

[Maxdout38]

WSBT in South Bend is Up!!!! (Only local news in HD)

Horray...

 

[Barnabus]

HD Local Upgrade

Does anyone know where there I can find a HD locals schedule? I get my locals from the Quad Cities Iowa/Illinois (Davenport, Rock Island, Moline, Bettendorf) Market and they were scheduled initially on a press release scheduled for HD upgrade last fall. It never happened and I was hoping to find out if anyone knew of a updated schedule.

 

[hardhead]

IIRC, Scott said "through 8/26".

The original DishNetwork tweet said:

Setanta Sports FREE PREVIEW Aug 12 – 26!!! Check it out on DN Ch. 406

I wonder if we'll get another week of preview since it started a week later than announced. (Aug. 19-Sept. 2?)

 

[Smith P.]

Same time changed market# from 43 to 42 of
8523 WRLM at 61.5W and 110W.

WRLM is a full-powered television station licensed to Canton, Ohio and serves the Akron-Canton area as part of Cleveland-Akron-Canton, Ohio market. The station is owned by Tri-State Christian Television.

WRLM's tower is located in Brimfield, near Interstate 76.

who-hoo, but CBS is missing.

 

[maxmoto]

Nerver mind I found it.

6581(38) - WLMO [MPEG2 SD] - Ciel-2 129W TP 06 Spotbeam 25 changed to Available (H)

Note to Digi this is CBS out of Lima, OH.

 

[ctownnerd]

Still no WBNX HD.
Also, I'll say it...
*whines* WHERE'S BBC AMERICA HD?!?!

 

[digiblur]

6581(38) - WLMO [MPEG2 SD] - Ciel-2 129W TP 06 Spotbeam 25 changed to Available (H)

Note to Digi this is CBS out of Lima, OH.

I'll update my tables on it so we get a City/State and Affiliate. In each subcategory of the report the changes are sorted by State then City. This keeps most of the locals together and makes things easier to read when Dish is reusing channel numbers as the markets don't get interleaved this way. Made it a pain to read before! But in your case since I dont have WLMO at all, it falls to the bottom.

But in the weird cases where the FOX in Natchez, MS belongs to the Alexandria, LA market it gets grouped with the Columbus, MS locals in the changes. Can't really help those cases.

 

[digiblur]

Anyone have any info on the locals that were added this week that do not list the city/state and or affiliation? I like to get them updated so when they go available we will know what they are.

 

[kstuart]

748 - DAWN [MPEG2 SD] added to Anik F3 118.7W TP 25 ConUS beam (NA)

Could be the start of something new...

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

1 - VOD1 [176] added to EchoStar11 110W TP 21 ConUS beam (NA)
1 - VOD1 [176] added to EchoStar3 61.5W TP 29 ConUS beam (NA)
1 - VOD1 [176] added to Echostar6 72.7W TP 21 ConUS beam (NA)

Wonder why they have it 3 times? The 72.7 one is not needed since the Eastern Arc dishes also look at 61.5.

6521(3) - WJMN [MPEG2 SD] - Ciel-2 129W TP 12 Spotbeam 15 changed to Available (H)(Escanaba, MI-CBS)

digi...isnt this MPEG2 8PSK too? I thought the other Marquette, MI locals were

 

[harshness]

WVLT - Knoxville, CBS

Looking at their website, they are a MyTV affiliate.

It is notable that they have a "coming September 2nd" and the DISH Network logo on their home page. It would seem that DISH is getting a pretty good head start.

 

[Mr Tony]

yep. They even have a scroll on the My Network website
DISH NETWORK SUBSCRIBERS: On September 2nd, MyVLT joins Dish Network on Channel 30... Catch the first University of Tennessee Volunteers game of the season live at 12:00 p.m. on Sept. 5 on MyVLT.

[BobaBird]

WVLTD = Knoxville, TN MyTV
(WVLT is CBS)

 

[mike123abc]

Not many markets left for SD, and HD is not too far behind.

 

[Mr Tony]

most markets left are ones that are just one or two locals per DMA

If Dish could do significantly viewed, they probably would have much more up

Off top of head, a few markets that NEED sig viewed to be worthwhile
Mankato MN (CBS only..rest from Mpls)
Glendive, MT (CBS only..rest from Denver and Williston, ND)
Lafayette, IN (CBS only...rest from Indy)
Zanesville, OH (NBC only...rest from Columbus)
Alpena, MI (CBS & PBS only)
St Joe, MO (ABC Only..rest from KC)

but with subschannels now its possible to add some like
Parkersburg, WV (NBC main, Fox & My sub)
Presque Isle, ME (CBS, Fox sub) & PBS
