HD Local implementation schedule?

[tlturbo]

Can anyone tell me where to find the Implementation schedule for putting HD local channels on Sat by city and date? I have looked and can't find it.

Don't think that it exists anymore. I wouldn't expect any more HD LIL until the new sats are up and operational. E* will probably be concentrating on National HD for now.

Sorry to say there is no such animal. Don't expect many if any additional HD locals until the second half of next year at the earliest. Dish needs to get another Sat in orbit among other things, like local channel negotiations. When the Feb 2009 analog cutoff date approaches, we should see more additions.

The list for 2006 never got completed and there have been no recent uplinks or rumors.

Only thing I possibly see on the horizon for LiL HD additions is Tuscon, AZ

Charlie must have a winter home in Tuscon.

It has nothing to do with that. Just room on the spotbeams.

Downgrade that thought. It looks like all those moves on the AZ spotbeams are for Yuma, AZ SD locals after all.
