I'm guessing charlie is spending most of his time wondering what to do with his $711 million purchase of the "wireless spectrum". It seems pretty clear that he could care less about his HD subscribers. I wonder how many license deals he could have made with National programming with $711. Well, I'm sure he has a more expensive education than I have, so I guess I'll just have to trust that he know's what he's doing. Yeah right.

Man, I feel like the prom queen left at the curb. I guess Charlie has so much money that my wallet is not interesting to him. Dish has the whole sat at 61.5 and 1 uplink is it!

Uplink activity seems to take long and longer each week.

 

[j_perry_31]

could this be the only uplink today?

Perhaps, but I'm sure there'll be some activity.

What local markets are there that were expecting HD LILs by the end of March?

 

[darrencp22]

No way. If I had to guess, a great deal of changes may take longer to implement?

Cleveland for one.

 

[tigerfan33]

I am sure it will be here. Last week was running a tad late too.

cleveland seems to keep getting pushed aside even though its been unplinked for a few weeks now

Yeah. I'm not optimistic. It was a top priority, it seemed, around the time of the chat and now it isn't even mentioned.

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

You are not going to see Cleveland until later this month.

As well it should be. Gimme my HD locals first. Just kidding of course.
Much anticipation today for the uplink report. 324 viewing already.

thats a big letdown

 

[digiblur]

Actually we got used to the uplink being earlier. It used to be much later in the afternoon.

 

[Fanucci]

Yeah, I think you said you thought around the 10th. I can wait. My contract says so.

 

[TNGTony]

Guys, the typical Wednesday uplink activity happens between noon and two pm mountain time, 2-4pm eastern. So no, it's not taking any longer than usual. We are just impatient kids waiting for Santa to bring the gifts already!

See ya
Tony

 

[Primus]

Except that we pay for these gifts
