HD DEMO Channel

[Kevinw]

I figure this has been mentioned before but why does DISH waste a channel with an outdated demo loop?

For retailers to show HD. It is always on in our local Sears store.

The reason for it is it's there for the retailers. While there are a handfull of HD Stations now not all of them are showing HD, or the HD they are showing is not the same high quality HD which is needed to show a HDTV or HD service off.

As HD becomes more common I can see the HD Demo Channel going away, but now if a dealer wants to show a customer good HD Now the Demo Channel is there.

Thanks guys,
Maybe they could update the loop to say how great the 811 is and quit explaining the 6000

I'm still suprised that Sears haven't put an 8PSK mod in their 6000 to show off the Real DiscoveryHD or HDNet.

I know HBO, SHO, or HDNet Movies will have profanity or nippelage on even during business hours.

That's what I like about them. Hot Lines - Acapulco.

I went into one of the local home theater stores in my town and they
had Hot Lines on. I stuck around a little longer than I planned.
