9300 Now A&E

[DS0816]

I like this Test channels things. I think A&E, NGC, and DSC in HD all look good. Here's hoping, if HD channels aren't launched before this coming weekend, that there will be a preview of TBS, HGTV, and FOOD in HD. Bring it all on!

I have Discovery on 93001. Looks nice. 93000 is black, but I talked to my dad and he's seeing A&E HD. I'm in LA and he's in Minneapolis. When testing, can parts of the country not recieve the signal?

In LA and just black on 9300. I was getting it when it was NG so I know my setup is good.

HR20-100

Had all the test channels before. Now both 498 and 9300 are black. I assume it's Directv screwing with things, but it sure worries me that some people are still getting 9300 and I'm not.

 

[titicaka21]

9301 is back no 9300 so i do not think you are alone

 

[Natron44]

I still have both 9300 & 9301. No problems that I'm aware of since they launched earlier today.

Earlier today I was watching NG and all of a sudden, it went to some cheap music and a slide saying they were having technical difficulty. Then the program came back. I lasted about 15 seconds.

It was like watching TV 30 years ago.

9300 is the NFL network here right now.

 

[Idahoguy]

9301 is the Discovery Channel here ...

 

[redmaxx]

I'm getting not purchased for 9300 and Discovery Channel HD for 9301.

 

[digiblur]

9300 is the NFL network here right now.

Release 'em already D*! Stop teasing the folks.

 

[DWDYEM2001]

I am getting "Channel not purchased (721)" on 9300 right now. I really want to watch some HD NFL network. That's the one channel that I am really excited for. Anyone know why am I not getting 9300? I do have the Total Choice Premier package with NY HD Locals.

9301 is showing up "Paid Programming" right now. Some cheesy infomercial is playign right now @ 3:46 AM in HD (lousy quality)...

I am in Northeastern, Pennsylvania. This is crap. When is Direct TV launching these new channels already?? What happened the the September 19th rumors. Direct TV says "by the end of the year" on their website.

A&E is a waste of HD channel unless you like CSI:Miami.

Amen to that. I'm calling Shenanigans on A&E HD kid.
