Yay ! Buffalo, NY HD locals finally went live to-day !

5181/004-00HD - CBS
5182/002-00HD - NBC
5183/029-00HD - Fox
5184/023-00HD - CW

are available as of today 05/28/08

5180/7 - ABC is still uplinked but not available
 
What's the deal with CW being made available in HD? I though every other LiL launch was just the big 4. Does any other DMA get the CW HD? Might there be other CW markets to come?
 
I would guess you're in the beam (not sure of the coverage) but you might need to "move" to Buffalo. Maybe someone from Rochester has a better answer.
 
I think it's an ABC thing because ABC affiliates in a couple other cities are not lit up either. Or maybe whatever syndicate owns the affiliate.... not ABC themselves... something like that.

I actually did a chart showing what's available in what DMA. I found 6 DMAs that have an HD channel other than the "big 4". Buffalo is the only one with CW though.
 
Looks like the Buffalo HD locals are down. I get a message saying they are working on it.

Not seeing any signal TP13 on 61.5.
 
This is sort of related... on my OTA antenna I get WNGS 67 with the Yankees and Mets games as a sub-channel of 7 (7-2)... and as channel 67 on Dish... Are the Yankees and Mets in HD on this channel if I get it OTA on 67-1 ??
 
Are you guys seeing the Buffalo HD channels today. I'm still getting a Dish message saying there is a problem.

BTW, the Yankee games on OTA 7-2 are not in HD. It is the same with Dish 67-1.
