Uplink Activity for the week of SUN May 28th 2006

[John Kotches]

6453 (KDNL) Added to TP Frequency: 12.100 GHz
6454 (KMOV) Added to TP Frequency: 12.100 GHz

KMOV and KDNL are St. Louis locals. Too bad no one can get a Dish 500+ or Dish 1000+ to receive them when they are made GA.

Thankfully my self upgrade to a DPP44 means I don't have much work to do to get it going

Cheers,

Damn Detroit locals on there. Now when can we get the new dish?

 

[psumattDE]

Just release the new HD's for Christ's sake!

6461 (WDIV) Added to TP Frequency: 11.800 GHz
6462 (WJBK) Added to TP Frequency: 11.800 GHz

ATTN DISH: You forgot a very important Detroit local: WDWB

Although a WB (now) station, they have much local HD sports, Pistons, and eventually hopefully Tigers. How could you get my hopes up with San Fran getting WB and disappoint like that?

Now I even have to question splurging on the purchase of a new Dish 1k+!

I so wanted to buy a new dish and DPP44, but where is the ispiration!

The San Francisco WB station isn't available in HD, it's the Sacramento WB station, KQCA. However, Dish does offer KRON-HD in the bay area. Not a WB affil, but the HD channel runs HDNet reruns 24-7.

Remember... if these aren't available for subscribers yet, things can change on a dime. They could throw whatever they want up there just to test things out. I'm assuming they have alpha testers around the states with engineering status receivers.

Uh to my knowledge the HD LIL for both E and D are only doing the "big 4" not the sub networks such as WB/UPN (which are going away)

 

[HDTVFanAtic]

Looking at lyngsat for 148W, why do I get the impression we are about to loose our high bitrate HD MPEG2 HBO-HD, SHO-HD and PPV a lot sooner than anyone currently thinks?

 

[JohnH]

Those D* subs looking for Sleuth. I wonder if they got it, yet?

Anyhow, it was uplinked to channel 198 on E* this morning. Not available, yet.

 

[jcrandall]

Sorry, i was thinking of sacramento with Wb, just of being hopeful. i only expect big four to start, but am not happy about buying yet another dish and switch!

 

[jcrandall]

Good to see sleuth, hope they turn it and the new Hd soon.

 

[Trev19]

Wheres Cleveland?

Are these HD feeds or SD? The SD locals just moved from 119 to 110 four weeks ago.

 

[JohnH]
