I've been advised that HD locals finally come to Indy tomorrow on Dish Network. Unfortunately, I was also advised that only three of the four feeds will be offered as NBC is not part of the program. Assuming the information provided was not in error, once again, Dish manages to bungle things relative to its competition.

Where are you getting your info?
Problem is, they currently reside on E5, which is inactive. They might get moved today, but I doubt they will switch on. There's been some conjecture that they may go EA or both. (which I doubt).I'd like to know where the info is coming from, as well. If it's from an installer, in my experience, they're not always the best source of up to date info. A few years ago, when I had an installer set me up with HD from Dish, he told me Indy HD locals were coming within a month. Well, three years later...
As someone pointed out, all four major network affiliates are uplinked, so I'd be surprised if Dish doesn't launch all four of them, sometime in March (as was said on the chat). Hopefully, "sometime in March" translates to today.
WTTV-HD has not been uplinked at all. Sure you weren't looking at DirecTv? There are no 51** channels on Dish.
Which is why I tried to look it up... here is what I did..They sure aren't listed as being available yet at E*'s web site like other new markets have been the day of being uplinked.
Those are all SD. The WTTV HD is a mistake.Which is why I tried to look it up... here is what I did..

Then looked up an address in Indy through an MLS page (ie house for sale)
tracked one down here

and it shows that channel on the bottom of the list.
