There is talk over in the Direct TV forums of them adding 4 more HD TV channels and that Starz HD is already up in test mode.
How can Dish possibly add 4 more HD TV channels on 119 or 110 ?
When is the next Retailer or charlie normal chat?
No word of StarzHD in test mode.
The next Chat is Jan 12th, IIRC - retailers the next day.
As for where to put them ... there is currently space for at least 17 SD channels on 110º. That's with current compression ratios. There is room for more at 119º as well. Move a few over to 119º and shuffle channels on 110º and you can clear the two transponders needed to put up four HDs.
This being a holiday week we may not see moves. But then again, Wednesdays are popular shifting days, and CES is just around the corner. Having a bigger HD selection would be a good thing.
