It is ok on this list, but I would not put them on the channel counts. PPV should be separated out too. Should really just be channels able to be subbed to. One can sub to all the RSNs, so they should be counted (Dish does have center ice and NBA, even if lacking NFL/MLBEI). Perhaps RSNs that are part time are listed as part time.
Total HD regular
Total Full time RSN
Total Part time RSN
Grand total
PPV/VOD total
Inflated counting method total
VOD should be seperate but not in the counts.
This changes on a daily basis, and 98% isn't through satellite. It requires internet.
PPV and all RSN's channels should count.
If it has its own channel number then it counts.
PPV has their own channel number, as does RSN's.
Just because the content might repeat all day, doen't mean its not in HD.

VOD and PPV should be separate and not included in the channel counts.
BET Jazz should be renamed to Centric in the spreadsheet. It's minor. It's not even a nitpick more of a FYI.

Updated with older Excel, please proofread
Updated. Changed BET Jazz to Centric. I also changed Dish's 101 from not available to not a full time channel. (They do have those country concerts in HD from time to time.)
No, Sir. It is *I* who should thank you for all your work with this, as well as being a volunteer moderator/etc. So, thanks to you!

The final tallies are not adding up. Should be
Totals Summary DN vs. DTV
Regular 55 39
News 7 5
Movies 27 15
Regular Sports 15 14
National HD 104 73
RSNs 25 36
Alternate RSNs 8 13

HD PPV* 14 26
* Total with HD PPV* 151 148
PPV & VOD Totals Vary* 19 100
Total with VOD* 170 248
And still undisputed HD Champ -------- Directv with 248 HD Channels. So Directv was the First (1st) to achieve the 200 HD channel milestone. DN still has not reached it, so stop claiming that you have 200 HD channels Charlie.

Check this one...
I'm not a fan of the 3D effects on the chart. However, I do like how you split regular, sports and premiums into separate tabs. I would move the VOD/PPV away from the premiums and into its own tab.
Thanks again, Dfergie.
3D looks better too me.Check this one...
You need to update the 5 new HD channels added to Direct.
277 Travel HD
307 WGN HD
356 MSNBC HD
560 Hallmark Movie Channel HD (HD Extra Pack subscribers only)
614 ESPNU HD
I might be missing something but some things just don't seem to add up for me.
"Regular HD"
on the regular HD tab, It shows 55 and 41 on the "Full Page" tab 55 and 42.
Looks Like Hallmark Movies is missing on the "Regular HD" tab.
If I add Hallmark Movies to the Regular HD tab and count, I get 60 and 43 in both places.
In the "Totals Summary" Section on the Full Page tab. The totals do not add up.
The "National HD" totals look correct for what is there at 104 and 78. However, when you add the RSNs (25/36) and Alt RSNs(8/13), it shows totals of 137 and 205. When I add that up I get 137 and 127.
Add the "Other" numbers and I get a total of 153 and 253
If I use the counts I get on the full page "Regular HD Section, I get totals of:
National HD - 109/79
Total W/RSNs - 142/128
Grand total - 158/254
I could attach the sheet with corrections but being new to this thread I did not want to confuse things if I am doing something incorrectly.

By all means correct it (it's not protected), I'm not that good at getting the formulas to work.
