new local list

[mdram]

where can i find a list of locals and when they are becoming available.
D* told me october for mine, and i just wanna keep an eye open

the E* section has the new uplink area, is there one here?

 

[Mr Tony]

the D* site has some of the info
DIRECTV: HD Locals

as for uplink, Directv uses their own setup (DSS) whereas Dish uses DVB (same as free to air) so anyone with a PC Card and the right software can see the changes Dish makes. Directv its harder and they can only see the national channel changes (not locals).

I feel your pain. Mine got pushed back to November as well.
It stared out as November and then moved forward to October, but now they are back to November.

Everything is fluid.
Could be any number of things.

Awful list ... Redding/Chico ahead of Monterey/Salinas/Santa Cruz?

Monterey/Salinas/Santa Cruz -- not listed anywhere in DirecTV's future, and Dish has had HD Locals there for years

Boy , we haven't had this discussion in YEARS.

I live in Redding and I would agree with you. I would have thought you would have already had them!
