Just in case anyone is interested, HDNet will be doing their coverage of the Shuttle launch (barring any issues) starting at 11a Eastern on 9422.

Dang.....Wish I would have know so I could have recorded it.

Replay at 2p on Sat Oct 27th according to the guide.

 

[GregE]

Ooooooo....Thanks. Now I just need to remember to program it.

Thanks for the info! I just slingboxed in and I'll get to watch it live!

 

[GregE]

I think the weather is going to cancel it today.

 

[drdroo]

It looks like they're going for it, weather passed ok.

Nope, they just said weather is go, 4:45 to go!

I have a DishPass set for NASA on HDNET, and it picks it up, when it's in the guide.

Darn, I was hoping it would be delayed by a day or two due to weather. I will be in Orlando the next week starting tomorrow. I would have loved to see this launch in person.

Great idea. I haven't used DishPass yet. I may just have to do it with this for the future.

I just watched my dvr recording of the launch. I always get goose bumps when they launch that beast.

The DishPass is the way to go

It's on my interest list to go down for a launch before they end the Shuttle program. We'll see if it actually happens or not...

I used to live in Daytona Beach - night launches completely lit up the sky even though we were quite a ways away from Cape Canaveral. Great stuff.
