We know for SURE that within the next week we will have a bunch more national HD channels.
Wrong, sir! Wrong! Under section 37B of the contract signed by you, it states quite clearly that all new HD promises shall become null and void if - and you can read it for yourself in this photostatic copy, "I, the undersigned, may not get all new channels, features, or packages herein and herein contained," et cetera, et cetera..."Fax mentis incendium gloria cultum," et cetera, et cetera..."Memo bis punitor delicatum!" It's all there, black and white, clear as crystal! Charlie is too cheap to add new national HD right now, so you get *NOTHING*! You lose! Good day sir!
Do the 622 and 722 receivers come with Local HD Channel Mapdown as the default ? Or do you have to enable it ?
( I am wondering whether my in-laws will see their new Local HD channels in the two-digit range, or will I have to tell them to looks for the 4 digit number ? )

I believe, somewhere on the menu, you can select HD preference, which should make the HD mapdown automatic. I think it is the default configuration. But it can be switched to SDs (why anyone would want that is beyond me).
Well look at thing this way...

Don't need a magic 8 ball to predict that one.
I could see them trying to avoid paying for a month by turning them on after midnight eastern on the 31st....
And Dodger games. :up
Cool, this is probably the most important LA local that the Dish subs still needed. Now Dish is only 4 HD locals behind Direct for LA HD.
I never thought E* would be crass enough to jab us with rate increases without also giving some more national HD at the same time. If the increase had been a couple of bucks I wouldn't have expected any, but at $10 I did expect some additional HD. I was wrong about that and won't be surprised in the least if no additional national HD is available come April 1st. This is a different company that the one many of us latched onto ten years or so ago.
Yea, I'm not a big Viacom fan but if I were I'd sign right now for those channels to be turned on April 1st. You never know when something "unexpected" will crop up and the whole launch is delayed or canceled so as long as you get those channels on the 1st I would be happy.
damn there is a flashback
lol yea all we need now is a pillow and a blanket like he had when he fell asleep on the entrance ramp.
Then that wouldnt be BY april 1st, that would be ON april 1st.
If charlie is/was planning on turning them on this week,or last week, or as close as possible to april 1st, he should have originally said " these new hd channels will be starting on April 1st".
Just imagine how happy everyone around here would have been when the "april 1st" channels turned on 1-7 days early? Now, everyone is mad, saying they will be on 5 mins before april 1st, etc.
It seems to me, Dish makes their situations negatives instead of positives.
Yeah, just like we knew for sure that most of the same channels would be added to the HD Absolute package by the end of last year.Well look at thing this way...

Yes, I thought all along it would be April 1st. Want to bet it won't be till the afternoon of April 1st?
