when you say "Future planned markets for 2006" when are we talking summer fall winter? lookn at the cleveland stuff
 
The list was updated about an hour and a half ago. JohnH and goaliebob report in their uplink activity threads that St Louis and Detroit are available.

"Future" just means "sometime" in 2006. Nothing more specific until we get close to each market being launched.
 
Anyone have an idea when Tampa will be added? I find it amazing that the #10 DMA is not on their drawing board.
 
How long does it take to go from Uplinked to Available? Am waiting for the Raleigh, NC channels to be added, which were uplinked May 31st.
 
Uplinked to available can be any amount of time. Sometimes they become available that week, sometimes not for a long long time (or ever). In the case of HD locals they should be soon, but noone know for sure.

I just talked to a good tech at E* for a different reason, but chatted about HD Lil for Colo. Spgs. or Distants.

He said nothing known about Colo. Spgs., and distants were not likely with all the other crap going on.

One thing for sure - if I lose my distants, I'll be "moving" 2 miles across the county line for sure. Now that I have 5 tuners worth of DVR, I migh do it anyway - I don't really need the extra timezones any more.
 

HD coming to St. Louis and Detroit

61.5 vs. 129 on a 622?
