Ok folks, since I have been back from Vacation I have been hearing a VERY strong buzz that SOON many people will be getting upgrades to a 105 SuperDish.
The reason for the upgrade is so that Dish can offer all locals using a one dish solution. For those who currently have a dish pointed at 61.5 or 148 for your must carry locals, chances are you soon will be getting notified about a SuperDish Upgrade.
I am also hearing buzzing that Dish is working on some new HD programming, this new programming will also go to 105 (but not until the new 105 bird gos up and is fully tested) people wanting these new HD channels but do not have a SuperDish will probably be able to get one by committing to a year of Dish Network HD pack.
There is also some buzzing that some HD could soon be found at 61.5 and 148, this is due to the fact that space will be opening up when the must carry channels leave the wing slots.
I would say to put ALL new HD only at 61.5 and 148 and forget about 105 for HD. This way if something happens and Dish does buy VOOM there will be lots of HD folks with dishes already pointed at 61.5 (and many HD owners already have dishes pointed at 61.5 from when HD was on 61.5 before)
Now of course as normal this is all just a rumor, however the buzzing is VERY strong this this is the course Dish Network is planning on taking. If I hear more I will keep you informed.
