Huh? I'm watching Velocity right now on channel 246. No issues recently that I'm aware of and I watch it almost daily...it's probably my most watched channel.
It’s still there. It must be out of free preview. This makes it sound like it’s gone for good.
Dude this is not the FTA forum.I heard Velocity has been renamed to Motor Trend or something like that I believe.
The channel still called Velocity. They did recently join with Motor Trend for online on-demand content, though.
Sorry, I was thinking the OP was asking about the (formerly) FTA Velocity on Ku 121.
There is a channel called Rev’N on OTA which is pretty similar
Hadn't heard of that one...no affiliate in Charlotte yet. Looking at their schedule, it looks like most of their programming is the thinly-veiled car product infomercial type shows.
We have it here on the WROB/KMJC/KCKS cluster of stations. I had never heard of it before I saw it here, either.
OK, let me explain. I receive tv from Hotwire Communications. We have a community antenna that receives Dish Network and is cabled to our homes. You won’t believe this but my receiver is a 722k. I have only had this setup for two weeks but when it started I had Velocity on 246. Now it is not even in the guide. I called Hotwire and they had me do a QAM Setup scan to see if 246 would come back. It completed and it is not back.

It would appear it isn't in the package Hotwire is giving you through DISH. It was likely free for everyone and why you could watch it for awhile now it's back to normal.
I was thinking that myself so I checked and it is in all but the Basic package. Plus, I have found I am missing a lot more than 246. About 50 channels that I should have are not in my guide.
Thanks Tampa8, I am doing that. They, Hotwire, are sending someone out if it does not resolve itself.
