Got both! Picture quailty looks like SD tv though. But maybe it is. Must just be testing Satellite to see if it works properly,and not worried about PQ right now.No 498 either

The Mrs. is now suggesting that for the next test, they run something other than Dirty Jobs so that she doesn't have to stare at turkey poop in stunning 1080i.

Dirty jobs is upconverted, just like it was on dish so dont judge pq by it.

This hr20 would only get gray on 498 but gets 9300 and 9301 fine.

Was getting grey screen on 498 as of last night, now it works and 9300 and 9301 still coming in fine. Looks like they are finalizing the bugs.

I'd have to say yes. I was getting x721 on the weekend test because D* hadn't yet dropped and then added the HD access on my account to have the account pick up access to the new channels.

The channels are coming in for me , but Dirty jobs is upconverted looks a littel better than the SD version. Hope this is not how its going to stay & will be in full HD.

The non hd stuff is upconverted, the HD stuff is ,well, HD.

I see many posts now with people noting the PQ or lack their of, but they fail to realize that DiscHD,NatGeoHD and TLD will not be showing 100% HD programming.
