Gainesville HD locals?

[bowens]

Any news on Gainesville locals that were supposed to launch last week? Also, when they do launch how easy would it be for me to swing my 61.5 over to 129?

No word yet. Still watching for another Uplink Report. As long as you have LOS for 129 (29 degrees EL) you should be able to swing that dish over.

Is there a goodnsite where I can
Get all of the alignment info for 129?

Try this LINK for swinging your wingdish around to 129. i did mine and it wasn't that hard at all. you might have someone stay inside and watch the signal meter to tell you if the signal gets better or worse. saves you from having to run inside and look for yourself. i think i had to run in at least 10 times when i did mine. lol, but i got it locked in and get a great signal from it. Hopefully Gainesville and Fort Smith get turned on this week. keeping my fingers crossed.

Just saw this on DISH Network (dishnetwork) on Twitter, it's addressed to this thread's OP, but thought others may be interested.

Happy 2 let ya know we're launching WCJB (ABC), WGFL (CBS), WNBW (NBC) & WOGX (FOX) in HD for Gainesville tomorrow evening!

Yeah, I've been bugging that guy on twitter. I'm glad they are coming. Now I need to get my dish moved tonight. I can't just swing it around or it will be looking right I to my porch. So I'll need to dig it up and move it.

I got my 61.5 dish moved to 129 last night and was getting a signal of 55 to 65 on most TPs 21 or so and up. But on TP 13, which is where my locals will be, I'm only getting 35. Is this high enough or should I repeak using TP 13?
