Not a bad rumor, its still up and running in testing... I am looking at it now.

Just because something is testing does not mean it will actually launch.

How are you looking at it. Do you have a hacked receiver.

 

[AKGolf]

Are there plans for those that can't get the east coast sats?

I'm getting WWOR HD also on 6307 just SD on 238. I hope it stills on I'm in Rhode Island. Also I read today that WSBK is going to be a My TV in the coming weeks or by the fall just to let everyone know.

KDFI HD is now live for us DFW area Dish customers, now all we need is KTXA 21 HD.

Is WWOR HD only available on the 61.5 satellite? I have 110,119,129

 

[Chris36]

I think so not 100% sure.

[reddice]

Finally they added WWOR in HD. They only need to add WPXN HD which I can't get good OTA even with a roof antenna and WNJU HD then we will have all the locals in HD.

Yes.

Yes, the NYC market is an Eastern Arc only city.

 

[Peter Parker]

I see WWOR in HD on my guide but when I try to access it I see a message that says I am outside of the viewing area.

Probably because the receiver is seeing another spotbeam on the same frequency so it gets a mismatch error...so instead it shows you the message you are seeing. I suspect they will fix this issue pretty soon.

 

[Peter Parker]

Isn't that WWOR in HD ona spotbeam? If so I don't see how we will ever see it unless we are under the spotbeam.

I think that WSBK would be better off waiting for the CW affiliation. But maybe the ratings are even worse than I thought.

 

[Doppy]

WWOR HD is on the wrong channel number. They put it on 6307, but it should be 6305. The SD counterpart is on 8105. All the HD locals in NY are on 63-followed by the last two digits that are the same as their SD counterpart. Additionally, there is currently WLNY on 8107. If the HD feed of that is provided someday it would not be able to go on 6307. Dish needs to fix the channel number of WWOR to 6305. Hope someone from Dish reads this or someone can forward this to them.

WLVI 56 in Boston has a hold on the CW affiliation. Currently WBIN 50 (the former WZMY) is Boston's MYTN affiliate, but they are giving it up this summer to go independent. WSBK 38 is the reported 'winner' of MYTN for the fall.

Makes sense, a few years ago WLVI was WB and WSBK was UPN. At the time of the switch when most WB's went to CW and most UPN's went to MYTN, I was surprised that WSBK went independent and WZMY was able to get the network affiliation.

maby wpix will become aviable in hd on dish via superstations in the future

so all they gain is a known 2 hour block M-F of reruns
