Greetings,
I was wondering when I will be able to receive the Indianapolis HD Local channels. I heard Mr. Ergan say on Charlie Chat that it would be "Later this summer", but I have no idea when that is. I have been reading on various Dishnetwork user sites that the channels will be on a new satellite, 118.7, which my two Dish 500 dishes (110, and 119, and 61.5) will not be able to receive, or at least I assume they won't. Will I need a new dish? Will I have to pay for it and installation? I called Customer Service and was told they have no information, and I should watch Charlie Chat.
I updated my receivers to the Vip 622 and 411 in April in anticipation of receiving the new HD channels in HD and other mpeg4 programs. I subscribe to the Platinum HD package/locals.
Any information and/or clarification will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Sincerely,
