SatelliteGuys.US DishNetwork Uplink Activity Discussion - Week Ending 11/17/2007

I am holding out for another Dish Logo HD channel playing smooth jazz. They had better come thru!

:haha lol :haha

DirecTV right now:

Dishnetwork right now:

 

[Minac]

I hope I'm wrong, but I have the strange feeling that we won't see any new HD this year! Especially the channels that direct is putting up. Just speculation but I think Charlie is really no longer interested in DISH as long term venture for his pocket, just a quick cash flow.

Prove me wrong Charlie.......

Priceless post
Thanks Jamesmck

 

[digiblur]

You guys are killing me over here! LOL

There's some spotbeam changes which I believe are on 61.5...or should I say changes in the tables. I won't have time to research it until later.

Yippie the Holiday Music Channel is up.

(Hey its something... the way its been lately I will take any breadcrumbs they give us)

 

[DanLee]

Speaking of the holidays...these uplink reports remind me of when my aunt talked for weeks about having something special for me for Christmas when I was a kid, and it turned out to be a set of pencils with my name on them. You get your hopes up only to have them crushed by Dish's lack of giving a damn about the butt whooping they are getting from Directv.

Dish won't care until defections start to depress E*'s value as a takeover target. By then it most likely will be too late.

BTW: I might be swayed if Charlie would send ME a box of pencils with my name on them.

You must be kidding about the pencils....that would cost Charlie a couple bucks

 

[cosmo_kramer]

This is the kind of pencil I want, An HD one:

Uni-ball Mitsubishi Alpha Gel HD Pencil - 0.5 mm - Orange Grip

 

[Poke]

Yeah not to worried about anything folks are to wrap up into what Direct doing that they forget that Direct had nothing to do but add more HD. Dish will be fine.

 

[Bountykiller]

Man, dishnetwork is really doing pathetic here.. i have to say.... i consider myself one of the biggest D* fan boys and im sick of their pathetic response on more hd... what gives.....

 

[ptuck874]

now i can post it, they ran out of money!

 

[tigerfan33]

now i can post it, they ran out of money!

They better not be out of money. They get at least $90 a month from me.

 

[B_Kranski]

Great thing about the Holiday music channel...is now we can listen to E* theme song...

It looks like their time is being spent on preparing to shift 61.5 to spotbeam mode. I'll fix the numbers in a bit but these are on 61.5

[kennya]

So what does that mean digi? Sorry to ask that but I am still learning.

 

[TNGTony]

it means:
There are a lot of new spot beams coming to life at 61.5º. This means that quite a few transponders can be used for HD local channels in much of the US. It may also free up some ConUS transponders for more national HD channels.

See ya
Tony

 

[kennya]

I was hoping you would say that! Thx Tony....!

 

[MikeD-C05]

I notice none of these channels are listed in the master list of DISH channels , so I take it that this means MORE Hd locals that haven't been announced yet. OR maybe they are finally adding the rest of the hd locals that they were supposed to have launched by the end of 2006.

If they are doing this to add HD Locals, is it safe to assume they'll all be added to 61.5 and not 129?
