Ok...though I have never heard of Altitude. I guess I am just curious if I am supposed to be receiving these channels in WI (I get Milwaukee locals if that helps). My sats are 61.5, 110, 119 and 121.

Thanks for the lists! I just want to make sure I'm getting all the HD I am entitled too! (sure wish I could get my locals in HD as their original list showed 2006) Like that ever happend and is a complete different subject...LOL

Altitude is a Denver RSN so you wouldn't get it in WI unless you subscribe to the Sports Package.

What about FSN Midwest HD(368) then? WI is midwest!

FSN Midwest is a regional sports network that operates in all or parts Missouri, Illinois, Iowa, Indiana, Kentucky, Nebraska and Kansas so same answer as Altitude HD.

Just another Sports HD update for D*
601 NBAHD Full time channel
612 FUEL HD Full time channel
639-1 FSN Houston HD Partime channel.

Doesn't matter. Look right now DirecTV has about 8 more channels. But the ones they don't have (VOOM) are channels they'll never have when the other count is even. Now if only we could get the Fish channel back......

Point of order on the charts:

Is CNBC truly HD or is it a 4x3 SD picture of CNBC on one side and graphics on the other to form a 16x9 image in SD?

See ya

Any comment on roadmaps? Is either provider running into a bandwidth limitation, e.g. DirecTV had to put up new satellites to offer new stations this year?

 

[bradb007]

Thank you for this. I was wondering how much of the "HD-leader" discussion was just rhetoric and how much was based on a real variance in channels carried. Looks like Dish is really missing some important channels. VOOM is fine and all if you like an extremely targeted audience, but I would trade all of voom for just Sci-Fi and USA.

 

[hdaddikt]

If bandwidth is a concern for Dish even for the foreseeable future, this tells me not to expect more local HD roll-outs anytime soon.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

This is an excellent service. Thanks for the efforts in creating and maintaining it.

 

[delanewf]

I want Sci-Fi HD on Dish. Any news on when or if it is coming soon?
