Part of my HD locals just went on....Cool
 
More HD locals, yay

LOL, though not very meaningful unless you happen to be in one of the DMAs finally getting them switched on. For me, a happy day would be getting the Fox and Viacom HD. I don't expect to see my LiL HD, even though I'm in a top 100 market, for another year or so since it's never been mentioned by E*. I may be with D* before that ever happens. I've been with E* since August 1998 but am reaching the end of my patience with Charlie and the half-assed way they seem to do things these days.
 
DIGI it looks good! by the way do you know if the encoders for the old voom slots have already been replaced?

Yeah, they can't seem to stick to the line in the contract that says:

A new national HD channel added to your service every week !

Most of the members of SatelliteGuys seem to have that clause in their contract, since they are constantly posting about it.

It feels good to have it automated once again! We may have a few minor bumps in the road but that is to be expected. I need to code the transponder change engine in soon, but that is the only thing missing right now.

A be sure to give credit to JohnH as I couldn't have done this without his huge help! Thanks JohnH...he is truly the godfather of uplink reports. :up

EDIT: And they were replaced a while back with the TMP A, TMP B, etc channels, if I remember correctly.

Looks like they've begun turning on the 61.5 Local HD duplicates for large markets.

Can some one in the DFW area with a wing dish for 61.5 confirm that you can get your HD locals from either 61.5 and 110?

Where are all the people complaining that non-HD-content HD channels were not uplinked this week? :D

There are several different conflicting complaining groups:

- Those that have "HD Only Package" want as many channels added to that package as possible, since they can only view channels that are in that package. They don't care whether it has any HD content, because they would rather have the channel than not have it at all.

- Those that have "HD Ultimate Package" want as many National HD Channels added as possible. They want more HD channels with HD content, since they already have lots of SD channels.

- Those that have "HD Essentials Package" want only new National HD Channels with HD content, since they already have the SD version of every added channel.

- Those who do not have OTA HD Locals want their HD Locals market made available by satellite as soon as possible, and this takes precedence for them over any National HD channels.

- Those who have good OTA HD Local reception and/or satellite delivered HD Locals don't care about anyone living in any other city, and so they complain about new HD Local markets and only care about National HD channel additions.

- Those who only watched HD channels that were removed, don't care about any other HD channels being added, and see the Forum only as a place where they can whine about losing the channels.

- Those who have DirecTV want Dish Network to never add any channels, so they can feel good about their choice of provider.

Did I miss anyone ?
