Still using IBM Corp. 1984 clicky (Part No. 1391401 et. al.) keyboards on my new Core2Duo machines. Found at Goodwill store for $5.
Best. Keyboard. Ever.
Just wish it had a "Windows" key.

The AK and HI folks have a nice surprise with this uplink report.
FYI... don't get frustrated if the CSR's don't know anything about these channels. It might take a couple of days for them to be active in their ordering system.

How to read uplink reports?
Can someone explain to me (or direct me to the appropriate literature) how to read these uplink reports?
I've figured out some on my own from reading them over the past couple months, but still like to hear it from an educated source.
Spotbeam maps would be fun.
Sorry if this is already posted, but searching " 'how to read' uplink" doesn't yield much.

A prolonged and painful death to the moron who swapped the caps lock and control key positions.
I'm surprised no comment about channel 141 spot finally being filled after 10 years of vacancy...
This leaves 102, 104, 125 open (although the latter was probably penciled in for BET-JAZZ years ago)...
and of course 137...

ESPN ALT has been at 141 before. It has been used in place of 148 which is now ESPNU.
These are included with the respective locals package. There are no mapdowns. So, you have to select the channel directly
Also noticed (at Dish Network Channel Chart (Unofficial) - thanks Tony!) that 155, 164 and 165 are open - 155 can be either sports or music, and 164 and 165 are in the music area...
Looks like they got their local subchannels too. In mpg4 SD.. Nice.. Wish dish could do that for everyone.. including CCSNCHD As well as WCIU HD, WPWRHD, WTTWHD and WGNHD... All missing from the chicago lineup.
digiblur, the report shows some of the AK channels coming from a HI spot-beam.
Varnson, check the EKB for Dish spot beam maps. Also,

Actually the report shows the AK channels coming from the AK, HI spotbeam?
If anyone wants the task of labelling all the spotbeams with the respective states they cover let me know.
Does that mean that AK residents can " move " to HI and get those channels, and vice versa ??

No, Alaska is spotbeam 46 and Hawai'i is spotbeam 47. Of course, some of the channels may appear on both spotbeams, but that depends on the actual configuration of the muxs. Someone in Alaska or Hawai'i would be the only one who could check that.
