Fsmw Hd On 61.5

i noticed that fsmw hd is now on 61.5 but it is not on my program guide yet , i have to have dish pointed at that sat instead of 129 because of trees in my neighbors yard so i havent been able to get fsmw hd yet , how long does it usually take to activate these channels ?? i noticed they moved about 20 fs hd channels to 61.5... thanks

There is no schedule for when and if uploaded channels are activated. You don't say where you're located, but remember that if you're not in the FSNMW area (Kansas, Missouri, ...) you won't get the channel from Dish unless you get the Multi-Sport package. If you get the SD version now, you should also then get the HD channel off 129 now, and off 61.5 when it's made available.

yea, im from missouri , just ticks me off that i cant get the hd version until it launches on 61.5 , there is supposed to be 88 hd cardinals games this year !! just seems if they moved that many over to 61.5 they probably will activate them , who knows !!!

I would LOVE a Dish Network weather forecast for Wednesday... (like the one below)

Maybe if we had The Weather Channel HD, it would be, no, wait, it couldn't be.

Speed

It sure would be nice if Charlie would add SPEED being that it is F1 season. I am sure we will see it SOON, right?

I doubt it. All those Fox owned HD channels are tied up in legal mumbo jumbo.

Legal mumbo jumbo? Dish? Lawsuits? Soon? I hope this a good week for HD.

OK. I did look into - that "weird" thing actually is not weird. Those same SIDs spread across different TIDs [SB] and must be processed accordingly. Not by relative tpn# [1...32].

Yeah we know, but if TSReader does not list the entire SDT then the info does not show up on that listing and it is blooper city.

What's weird is TSReader handles other duplicate channel numbers fine.. haven't heard anything back from Rod yet.

Digi, check your PM.

Except when one or more were available and one was not available or vice versa.
