That feature has been there for quite some time.

290 - TENIS [MPEG2 SD] - EchoStar8 110W TP 05 ConUS beam changed to Not Available

Could Enzyte make that an HD channel ??

Oops, I missed the counter - it's on top of each report opposite to JohnH at end.

:haha rotfl :haha

I would guess the slate is for the Voom transition.

STOP making funn of me i was tired...

Okay people, if it's like last time, they added Dayton's sub-channel guide data and took 90% of them all back two days later.... I see Dayton's in the list so .... expect them to be gone soon !

 

[pdxsam]

Portland Oregon's sub channel info is available

 

[VinceT3]

It would be safe to assume it's a.....slate.... only 0.5 megabit. But a slate of what?

Let the speculation begin.

Can I make a suggestion. Can you put a link in the first message to the actual uplink report... kind of nice since the report is usually about 100 messages behind these threads and I'm usually a little lost till I go find the uplink report..

 

[digiblur]

One other tidbit of information. Echostar 119 Spotbeam 9s12 switched from QPSK mode to 8PSK mode recently. The spotbeam has been empty for quite some time but remained in QPSK mode. It's now screaming in 8PSK glory.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Dish say Birmingham, AL HD locals were coming soon? New Orleans, LA DMA is also in the beam but I'm betting on Birmingham to be uplinked in a few weeks.

C'mon now.... it's a sticky like this one.

Not a bad idea though.... I edited the messages just for you.

Yeah, especially good for those of us who just read the "new" messages without bothering to view the individual forums. Thanks.

I've been waiting for this one:

14247 - WPTD6 [EPG] added to EchoStar5 129W TP 05 ConUS beam (Not Available)​

I got home late last night after the Dragons game and picking up my new ViP222. I didn't even notice if this guide data showed up after activating it.

9463 - NHLHD [MPEG2 HD] - EchoStar8 110W TP 13 ConUS beam changed to Not Available

What is this? Isn't NFLHD on 61.5 and 129? Did they have it as a free preview on 110?

NHLHD
Yes
Not that I know of.

It is nice having all of WPTD's sub-channels having guide data but even for 2-02, 7-02, and so on, I was tired of just seeing "Digital Service".

 

[peter1377]

Can someone help with why everyone is all excited about OTA sub-channel EPG? Here in Cleveland the sub-channels are very limited. Our NBC and CBS affiliate have weather information (which is nice, but I don't need the EPG for that) and the MyTV affiliate has Tube (which, once again, is nice but doesn't need EPG). Oh, and the PBS affiliate in Youngstown has about four religious sub-channels.

Do other cities' stations have real content on the sub-channels?
