Digi,
I think I've asked this before, but I don't remember if it got answered.
Do you know what the difference is between the TV designation and the mpeg2 or 4 designations on the uplink reports?

Basically to answer your question there are two diffrent flags for television on dish one is for mpg 2 and the other is mpg 4. Yes both digi and I can tell and we know what the diffrence is for both in the system tables.
Bob,
Yes, I know what the mpeg 2 and 4 difference is. In the uplink it said the flag went from tv to mpeg2. I'm just wondering what TV is.

He means:
5862 - SPEC1 EchoStar1 148W TP 23 ConUS beam changed from TV to MPEG2 SD (NA)
I think TV are mpeg 2 engineering channels, but I am not sure.

Phoenix has had HD LIL for a while, could the changes be to add the rest of the local HD? KUTP (MNTV) is going to have Suns games in HD. I don't understand why they would need to move the SD channels around to add HD.
In general, the large uplink chunks go on Wednesday afternoon. however, they can do an uplink change anytime they want.
Why would they do Tucson when the spot beam (should) covers a much larger market in Las Vegas?
Digi said it is dish engineers "playing around" with the system. For what reason. Who knows.
Possibly because they have retransmission agreements with the Tucson stations and not enough with the LV station to make it worthwhile yet?
Should.... but it doesn't. Covers the majority of AZ except for the upper northwest corner.
tsduke, I am with you on this one. It has been there a long time just showing HD Theater (Discovery). There must be something they are planning to do with that channel.
Anybody "in the know", KNOW?:
It's not a channel technically... just another number pointed to the same exact video stream as the standard HD Theater channel.
I highly doubt it.
DirecTV has HD locals and retransmit agreements for all big four networks in Las Vegas.
Las Vegas
3 KVBC (NBC) - Sunbelt - no HD retransmit history with Dish
5 KVVU (Fox) - Meridith - good HD retransmit history with Dish
8 KLAS (CBS) - Landmark - good HD retransmit history with Dish
13 KTNV (ABC) - Journal - no HD retransmit history with Dish
Tucson
4 KVOA (NBC) - Evening Post - no HD retransmit history with Dish
9 KGUN (ABC) - Journal - no HD retransmit history with Dish
11 KSMB (Fox) - Belo - good HD retransmit history with Dish
13 KOLD (CBS) - Raycom - HD retransmit Dispute with Dish in Honolulu
