Not sure if this is news or not...but I see a TON of new channels on my Turbo HD Silver subscription.

SEDGE

SK&FM

Anyone know if these are permanent changes? I'd basically resigned myself to getting the same HD channels until I finally switched to a "current" sub.

are all part of the Dish "thanks for being a sub. As part of the 30th year of Echostar we'll give you these channels for free....hope you dont notice the $5 a month price jack we are doing starting in February"

The others are the Feb free preview -- see channel 102.

Alrighty....well at least I get something for that price increase, haha.

Won't get too attached to the free previews.

FYI - the package name is no longer "Turbo HD", but Dish America (either plain, silver or gold).
