HUNTOR said:Need a little help folks I am #20 <Orl,FL> on the list and want to upgrade to HD from standard def.
Besides the HD-Tivo Primary tv and the H20 for the 2nd HD tv in the house what equipment do I need?
AT-9 dish upgrade? also do I need the OTA Antenna?
Sorry for the Noob questions but I want to have my facts straight before I call CSR to schedule the upgrade.

23: Portland, OR
34: Cincinnati, OH
35: Greenville/Asheville, NC
It could be they will be projected to have a much lower DMA rank as of the new reporting in the fall, or maybe they are having contractual issues getting them online, or maybe the actual affiliate is having issues with, or the delivery of their digital signal.
charper1 said:Tallahassee is not in the next batch, but I guess you could still hold out hope. What is your zip or distance away from the towers? FL is as flat as they come and getting "available" OTA should be as easy as getting wet in the rain.

I'm pretty sure they have an ignore feature on this site, use it, and stop whining your same ol crap over and over..
charper1 said:Which channel and heading? I would like to try that.
drbill28 said:I'm still confused with how the rollout of this will work. I'm trying to explain what will happen to my brother in law and sister whom I live with in the Pittsburgh DMA.
He gets upset over every little problem and switches all of his services (internet/tv/etc) all the time because of something minor.
They currently have an HD subscription. When this rollout happens, what will have have to do to get new equipment, would it be leased, what would the cost be? Or is this process all automatic?

gwlashier said:Where is Roanoke, VA going to be on that list? I'm a DirecTV satellite installer in the Roanoke area and have already been installing the AT-9 dish with the H20 receiver and that's the first question the customers have been asking me. I've been telling them it'll be sometime probably late 2006 with no specific month or date. Any input from would be appreciated...
