Think you must have been on something. There was a list of proposed HD locals, but I have never seen a rollout schedule.
Once upon a time, I thought that I saw a list that showed the DMA ranking and 'rough' HD local rollout schedule. I may have been sniffing glue at the time.Could someone confirm or deny this?
Thanks!
I'm pretty sure the phrase "5 markets per month" was uttered at some point.
You left off the other half of the sentence that says pending the acceptance of Echostar's proposed contract with that market. It's not like the broadcasters are banging down E*'s doors trying to get their content rebroadcast by satellite.
Some of these affiliates are not satellite friendly and some are joined at the hip to a cable distributor.
Hope you're right.I think within 6 to 8 months you will see a lot of locals hd channels being launched.
The remainder are shown at the bottom of EKB: Dish HD Locals. No word on whether those are still being considered or what else may be next.mdonnelly said:There was a chart that E* put up at CEA in January of 2006, with a list of DMAs that they hoped to have up by the end of the year. Some of them did show up in 2006, some in 2007, and some never have shown up.
