Nothing much this week that wasn't already mentioned besides them passing along Gracenote's update for WVECDT's RF number and GIFT - Extra Innings on Us going live

What are the "HD Occ" channels for? I found several of them in the smart search results and they all showed either the D* logo or a black screen. They also all had the option to launch the ScoreGuide.

Those are the feeds used for the part time sports channels that aren't repurposed from CINEHD, like the ESPN+ for Business channels that have a lot of back to back events during the fall

The Open Experience on 205.x, 601.x and the 900s

I saw Open Mix channels while I was playing around some more with the Smart Search feature and they were subchannels of 205 and 600. Glad to see they are live now.

BTW, I'm not sure what they are doing with CINE 176. It says "to be announced" in the guide, and all I get is a black screen when I tune to it, rather than the Ku offline slate.
