beckley/bluefield locals

[tonystewart20]

what sat is dtv putting those locals on. Anyone heard

 

[Mr Tony]

I will hazard a guess when they put up the locals they will be on either 99 or 103

that seems to be the new slots where they are putting locals. They will be in MPEG4

 

[tonystewart20]

MPEG-4 does that mean i will need hi def equip like dish network

IIRC, Directv has an sd receiver that does mpeg4.

I was wrong...according to Lyngsat the only SD locals on 99/103 in MPEG4 are Alaska/Hawaii

so they might cram them on 119 if they do put them up (spotbeam space permitting)

I just checked lyngsat and they showed sd mpeg4 locals for Greenville NC, Williamsport PA, LA, and Denver.

 

[Mr Tony]

are you sure?

All the ones I checked say "MPEG4 HD" except for AK & HI

This link shows one:DirecTV USA on Spaceway 2 & DirecTV 11 at 99.2°W - LyngSat
This one has a couple more:DirecTV USA on Spaceway 1 & DirecTV 10 at 102.8°W - LyngSat
If you go through the hd link they don't show, but if you use the America link they do.

Hmmm. Check channel 15 in the first link. I get WNCT in Greenville, and in the second link I get channel 12, KBDI in Denver, channel 53 WQMY in Williamsport, and channel 58 in LA, KLCS. Do you see those in brown instead of green for the hd channels?
