Now that's strange. changinga MPEG 4 HD to MPEG 2 SD......." CHNG 5920 MP410 MPEG4 HD Tp 8 EchoStar 2 148w UNAVAIL HIDE TO 5920 MP410 MPEG2 SD Tp 8 EchoStar 2 148w UNAVAIL HIDE"
 
Not any more.

Now they are preparing to move it to 77 West.

Nothing they really do as far as uplinking to E2 have anything to do with the EA. It is all the usual testing and playing now. When they move it to 77 they will have different uplinks since all the tables will say 77 instead of 148 anyways. They of course will turn off all the TPs for the trip too. Even the uplinks have to change since of course they will have to use a different dish pointed at 77 from the ground to do the uplinks.

The transponders are the same though.

If say (making these up) Transponder 2 will be carrying 12 MPEG2 SD channels for Eastern Arc, then they can test Transponder 2's power and stability in advance, so that there are no surprises when they reach 77.
 
Any new HD today people? I have been hearing stuff but nothing concrete.

I believe there will be at least one HD channel today or soon because in the Latino HD package they will move ESPN2 to channel 5302 beginning today. They put a slot on channel 5301 saying that as of 06/25/08, ESPN2 will be be moved to 5302. I'd like to see what they will put on channel 5301.
