Breaking News! New Voom Starting To Get Epg Info :)


CBS HD has allways been on a wing slot (148,61.5) so that would require a 2nd dish off the bat .. Right now cbs hd e is on 61.5 and will stay there. Cbs HD w is on 129 (dish 1000) but is not avabile to subs from that location.. and 148 where it is avab. to subs.

ESPN2 HD is currently on 129 and 61.5 (not avaible to subs yet either)
 

So, I've got to have a 2nd dish to receive CBS no matter what? Why can't I receive the west feed from 129? I guess that would make too much sense.

Oh well, I guess I'll have to pass on my CBS. That sucks, too, because that's really the only network I really cared about getting in HD.

The reason why is... at this current moment.... CBS HD on 129 is not avaible to subscribers but in time this will change... It could change as soon as TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!!! So dont get your hopes down yet

Thanks for the hope!! Is that both the east and the west, or just the west.

John- Who ain't picky, just curious
 
Thanks. I'll check w/ you tomorrow for any update.

Dish has added CBS west to my sub package, but I assume they'll change it for me.

People who buy shoes.

People who eat at McDonalds.

People who sleep.

I don't want to watch any of these in HD either. Unless the "sleeping" is "sleeping with."

Would you qualify to get CBS HD, even if it were on 129?

Yes. In fact, Dish has already added CBS-HD to my subscription, (I've had my waiver since before I signed up w/ Dish), I just can't receive it. I'm going to call them and ask them to switch it from the east to the west and hope that the west becomes available from 129.

Any news about this yet? I called Dish today and got my CBS HD switched from east to west. The guy was kind of confused as to why I wanted to do this.

I told him that I had read some info on the web that the west feed may be moved to 129 and he said that it was being discussed, but nothing official had come across yet. I explained that I definitely couldn't get the east w/o a second dish (which got vetoed) and that I might be able to get the west someday.
