Uplink Activity for Wed July 19th 2006

[digiblur]

I havent taken a look at the uplink today, but the two D61.5 and 148, never had an engineering flag and has been avaible to subs sence they were uplinked

Odd... the file I have on 7/19 has them uplinked as engineering.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Nope they have been available since they have been uplinked.

 

[goaliebob99]

this is what i have for uplink activity today

7967 - KNDX Became avaible to all subs with the appropreate package
8335 - KPHZ removed from 119.0W TP 5

 

[digiblur]

Nope they have been available since they have been uplinked.

I guess some of the SDT/NIT gurus need to teach me then as I must have misunderstood goalie's previous explanation of engineering vs non-engineering:

[goaliebob99]

Digblur I just looked at my file for 7-19

I have both 61.5 and 148 as ........ in there package teers

 

[JohnH]

"7967 - KNDX removed engineering flag". Digiblur, this one switched from one engineering to another engineering. The latter being somewhat more recent in usage for special circumstances.

 

[JohnH]

I have no info on the D61.5 and D148 thing as my sample was later in the day. I will say it is highly unusual for them to uplink an available channel witout an EPG entry already in place.

That's exactly what I thunked

 

[BFG]

digiblur is correct, when they were uplinked they were engineering, Cause I tried to view the channels when you reported them being added and couldn't. I tried a day or two later and could
