The HD RSNs are not full-time channels, they are only live when there is a game on. Some RSNs have far more games in HD than others.
Check your zipcode on Welcome to EplaybookI don't get all of the hoopla going on about the HD RSN's, they seem to be a waste of good bandwidth to me.
I've mentioned this before in a different thread, but the Midwest one has been up in Indiana about a month now, and I can honestly say I have not seen one thing on there. Nothing but the Dish HDTV logo. Whats the point?
Am I missing something here. Do I need to activate something?
Have you tried to explain this to D*? Aren't they counting all their HD RSN's as part of the "100 National HD Channels"?They are only on when a game is on. They are not 24 hour channels.
Some of the RSNs are 24/7 HD. Can they count those? E* can't, they just do the games.Have you tried to explain this to D*? Aren't they counting all their HD RSN's as part of the "100 National HD Channels"?

That will show you the teams that claim your area, and the RSNs that carry them. If your RSN is on E* in HD, you should get the game when the RSN has it. You might need the MultiSport package to get the RSNs for all the teams that claim your area.
Yep, definite waste of channel space to make it hd for something that will get little use and on something that doesnt need to be in hd so soon.They are only on when a game is on. They are not 24 hour channels.

Well, that's a matter of personal preference. Personally, I think that HD adds more enjoyment to sports programming than anything else. I do kind of agree that any HD channel showing SD programming should be blacked out for that timeframe.Sorry, I just dont believe that sports is a good media to put hd into specialy when sports programming is already way overpriced in any package and now it gives E and D and all the cable companies including the actual providers even more reason to charge you and me the customer more for the privilege to view or in my case not view the programming. And really it is a waste of space to have a channel wether hd or sd that will only show programming part of the time.
