On my H10 when I put on the HD channel guide its telling me that 101 is an HD station. I'm on it now.. and while it does appear to be "widescreen," I don't think that it is broadcasting in HD. If it is, the best thing I can describe it is not HD-Lite, but "HD-Retarded." Anyone else have this?

 

[w1neb-nh]

Yes, it does appear to be in an HD format.

 

[iceturkee]

my h20 is fine and one of my hr20's is okay. one is showing me the banner and a black screen. this is still after i rebooted. anyone else having that problem?

i'm receiving all current mpeg4 programming on all three of my hd units too.

 

[Jamey K]

I think we're close now.

[vurbano]

And so begins a torrent, a flood of calls to D* for Dish realignments due to incompetent installers. Mine is scheduled for this morning.

You know as well as I do that it would be more interesting than going to the Yom Kippur services tonight!

 

[iceturkee]

You know as well as I do that it would be more interesting than going to the Yom Kippur services tonight!

sure, under these conditions however: the channel would have to come with some of my favorite all time acid rock recordings; i'd need to find some old disco lights to hook-up as speakers; and i would definitely need to be drunk so i would enjoy the music and the lights. i wouldn't care if i stared at a message all night!!!
