Will new national HD go live on 9/12/07???

[grydlok]

Customer Service also told me tonight that September 19th is the roll out date which is consistent with a memo I saw posted here on SatelliteGuys. However, tonight I can't get the Yankee game on YES HD (622)- instead there's an infomercial for NBA League Pass so maybe something is up. Customer Service told me it's a problem at YES but we know they've been inaccurate in the past.

YES HQ caught on fire the other night. It's down.

Why are there two or more running threads to discuss the same information? I recommend that they be merged.

There was a fire in Connecticut that knocked out 4 HD channels. A&E HD, History Channel HD, NFL Network HD and YES Network HD have been knocked off the air on many TV systems.

I believe he is referring to the countdown in ScoBuck's sig.

YES Network HD is off the air due to a fire here at the Connecticut Uplink Center for Yes Network.

I am hearing it could be back tonight.

Yeah, And my guess is CNN on 202 will be one of the first.

I can't do a view signal strength right now because of a "scheduled signal test" set for 9:01 a.m.; whatever that means.....

Are we there yet?

I was just checking the online guide on Directv.com and it show TNTHD on 245; SHOHD on 537; and HBOHD is gone and also the guide does not show HBOHD OR SHOHD in the 70's. Don't know what this means but something is going on.

 

[Bigguy]

Sorry little slow on the post See it has already been posted above mine.

Just checked it out and it certainly seems that way. I await patiently with great anticipation .


Peace and blessings,

The "For Engineering Only" is access to the VOD beta (but you must have downloaded software 0x190 and activated it...later & earlier versions do not allow entry to VOD).

The other dsy mine went to 0197 then Sunday I did a force and it went to 018a

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Still getting all 0's on the 113 satellite when I do a signal reading.

 

[syphix]

113?? See, I knew D10 wasn't parked correctly.....

I consulted a psychic and looked at the coffee grounds in the bottom of my mug this morning, and I am absolutely sure that the New HD channels will be appearing by end of the day on 09/12/(21)07. I bet my life on it.

Just kidding.

Man I am not sure I can wait any longer. The suspense is killing me.
