Echostar 18 Launch Approx 4:15 EDT June 18 2016

Still waiting for Dish to file the beam patterns for 61.5W.
It will be interesting to compare them to the previously filed patterns for the 110W slot.
One thing for sure, Hawaii will not be getting locals.
 
No. There will be no more HD on Eastern Arc than there will be on Western Arc. They will add HD, 4K, etc... at the same time on both arcs. They wouldn't want to put more HD on one arc than the other.

Yea because only the people on this board would know there was a difference and would be calling customer service requesting an arc change or some screwy hybrid setup with eastern and western arc dishes
 
Ok I got this back from Arianespace.... There will also be a live webcast.

Please, find hereafter all requested information.
