I'm curious why they would not wait to add any PBS locals in HD until everyone had the major network locals in HD.

I may be wrong, but I think the gov. is forcing them to make PBS a priority.

Epix 3 HD just became the first channel from BBMP and Epix pkg to not be available to Puerto Rico subs. Another dumb move for Dish.

But we did get VH1 in HD who hooooo. NOT!. Just another bone they throw us once in a while to keep the natives happy

no its not

4384 - PNTGN [MPEG2 SD] added to Ciel-2 129W TP 21 ConUS beam (The Pentagon Channel) (A) (H)
4384 - PNTGN [MPEG2 SD] added to EchoStar15 61.5W TP 04 ConUS beam (The Pentagon Channel) (A) (H)

Doesn't make sense EA has only MPEG 4 why would PNTGN on EA be MPEG 2. Never Mind I checked and there are still some MPEG2 chs on EA. They should get rid of those too.

 

[dan188]

Can't get rid of mpeg2 due to all the older recivers out there ie 301 and ealier models and of course legacy revivers

 

[Mr Tony]

On Eastern Arc the only receivers that can be activated are MPEG4

But....there are some MPEG2 only customers still on 61.5....the International only folks (but they are moving to 118.7)

 

[dan188]

I had 61.5 when I had a 301 reciver
