It is just bad to now see 2 TPs in QPSK (21 & 32). This is 14 HD channels of lost capacity. Hopefully they turn them back to 8PSK.

Tp 21 will not change. It has the EPG, Sat identifier and other update channels on it, which are for all receivers.

Tp 32 reminds me of Tp 27 at 61.5. It has various types of channel while in QPSK,

Altoona/Johnstown is on.

Imagine a committee of deranged monkeys trying to turn on a light switch.

Apparently it only takes one monkey:

WOW... give me the channel numbers to check and I can pull up the TP's for a quick check. I'll do it later after the second uplink runs today. I don't have a dedicated dish like I do on 110/129/91, so I'll have to swing the motorized over to 61.5 and pull the uplink process down for a few minutes.



Getting the channel piped into the uplink center and over to the uplink side takes a bit of work. But actually changing the tables so I our receivers know how to tune it doesn't take much.

Here are the currently assigned channel numbers for all properly mirrored TMP HD channels. These are the only ones currently capable of bringing more national HD that haven't already been checked on 110.
