It stands to logic if your going to have 70 by the end of October and you only roll new channels out on wenesday. You will lite up about 17 channels each wenesday until the end of the month. The only question is on what wenesday will they lite up Scifi, Usa, Fx those are the channels I'm looking forward too.

this is just my hunch and nothing unofficial or official from directv but i suspect sone rsn's might be switched to conus this week. i say this because hockey starts wednesday and more games on center ice will be broadcast in hd this year.

I'm a little confused on this and have seen it mentioned a few times.

Whats the good/bad on switching rsn's to conus?

There is nothing bad about doing this, the SD RSN's have always been CONUS. What has happened the past couple of years was if you had a package like NBA-LP and a game was produced in HD you couldn't see it unless D* put it on ch 94/95 or you were in the HD beam for that home team RSN. Now with the RSN's going CONUS you'll be able to see that game in HD anywhere if you subscribe to the correct sports subscription.

Example, you have NBA-LP and live in Las Vegas and want to watch a Chicago Bulls game played in Chicago. Comcast Sports Net Chicago produces the game in HD and was on the CSN Chicago HD spotbeam, you wouldn't be able to see it in Las Vegas. With the RSN move to CONUS you'd now be able to see the came since CSN Chicago would now be on the CONUS .

Thanks. That is a very good thing.
