Will they have a parade? Not "offically launched?" I guess you better talk to your source again, because, lo and behold, it's on DIRECTV.
Just to ease your mind, it's on my guide and I can tune to both of the Channel 56's that is listed on my guide. That's even without resetting my HR20, since I am not at home and accessed it thru my slingbox.
I suggest that you should, in the future, refrain from making statements that are untrue, especially when those statements are patently false and can be proven to be false.
These people also 'CLAIM' (lol) to be receiving channel 56 from Boston in HD:

Questioner - all these folks are hallucinating, huh?
The channel has indeed showed up for me too, but I called a contact at wlvi and says no agreement has been reached and the channel should not be live. I will report back later.
The CW network is currently lit in 22 of the 78 markets D* has HD locals in. That being said, it is lit in 9 of the top 10 DMAs, and 15 of the top 20 DMAs.
Thus it is available to over 50% of U.S. households.
And they are adding to this every other week now.

Oh, another contact. It just kills you that Directv has it on, doesn't it? It must as it seems that what you are doing, as unsuccessful as it has been, is to try and knock WLVI HD off Directv.
Somehow, I doubt that Directv is showing this without approval, your "source" notwithstanding.
WLVI is owned by Tribune, who owns many of the CW stations, as well as FOX in Seattle and Sacramento. If DirecTV is carrying the Tribune stations without an agreement like they have for the past year plus, they will most certainly be fined.Questioner said:
With that said, I will guarantee that there is a blanket retransmission agreement with Tribune, allowing DirecTV to lift WLVI and rebroadcast it.
Without an agreement. Wow. What's next?
I'm kinda shocked they are carrying WUCW Minneapolis...after all SINclair owns them...and we all know how SINClair likes to screw with people wanting to rebroadcast their signal
Sure, but DirecTV and Sinclair have had an agreement for a while. It is more than likely DirecTV and Sinclair have a timeline to get CW feeds up. Just like what DirecTV worked with Tribune for the CW feeds. They've been phasing in for some time.
Hey q, sorry the receptionist "contact" at WLVI didn't get the memo before you called her.
He moved, I didn't get the notice!
It hasn't helped his ability to get credible information, however. Speaking of that, where is that list, Q?I guess he left again!He moved, I didn't get the notice!
