I had to stretch it. But now I suppose everything is stretched (it did)
When did they add H&I at this slot?

Not even 2 hours ago, wished it was the HD feed like they did with Comet.

Have H&I is actually welcome because it's the one reason I put up the antenna. And it's on VHF 2 here so it's hard to get consistently.
I wish Dish software would remember the stretch per channel. H&I OTA stretches by default. I wouldn't mind them showing the original 4x3 but they don't. So Dish should stretch it by default.

Why is their website
HandiTv.com
That really sound like a adult channel.

Really got used to having that channel. Hated to see it go away last winter.
In NY/NJ it was channel 42 then they sold it to Jimmy Swaggart. That was in 2016 and Dish never replaced it until now. I wonder who is feeding this and when they'll pull this rug...

Note that when the HD feed launched, they also removed the SD feed. It took Dish a few months to realize that they still needed the SD feed for Western Arc, so they added it back:

My Toshiba seems to make everything 16X9, so I did not realize it was in 4X3.
Great to have another diginets. Now, if Dish would add Decades. Used to have it in PDX (KOIN's 6.3, but dropped for Bounce.
Well since H&I and MeTV are both Weigel properties perhaps they will switch to HD at a later date and it's no surprise to me that the H&I feed is anamorphic just like MeTV
What they do on H&I is advertise Twitter #allstartrek as a way to group tweet all the classic Star Trek series. They show them in episode order. They repeat the cycle every few months.
MeTV shows Star Trek TOS on Saturday night. Every few months coincidently the same episode will be on Sunday night on H&I and diehard trekies tweet both times.
