Does anyone know how this normally works?

I see in another thread that, sometime in the second half of this year, my DMA is supposed to do locals on HD, but on 61.5, while I'm currently with the D1000 with 110, 119, and 129.

So I would need a new dish.

Obviously, I can assume that dish won't just send someone around to update the systems unscheduled.

Will they just wait until I find out, somehow, that the locals are available here in HD, and have me call them and request an upgrade?

And what kind of fees are normally required for a call like this?

Just thinking, and I think I am finally out of contract, if that applies to this. I signed up for HD (Vip622) in December of 2006 when I bought my TV.

Dish still doesn't have any real competition in my mind here. The local Cable has few national HDs, missing many of the channels I watch here on Dish, and DTV doesn't even offer locals in SD.

Thanks,
