Is the HDNet Test pattern still available?

Anybody know if the HDNet Test pattern is still available?
It use to be on Tuesday at 8AM EST but now that's Hogan's Heros time slot.

Last time I looked (away at the moment) it was in a narrow slot (~15 min) in the guide. You may not see it directly but if you traverse the guide step by step it will show in one direction or the other. You can also look at the start and stop times of the programs before and after and if 15 minutes is missing then it is hidden there.
Luck,

Just to let you know I didn't find it in the guide so that why I posted the question. If I missed it some how let me know the day and time you saw it.

I recorded it on a Tuesday morning between 8-8:10 am about a month ago. I will assume they are still broadcasting.

It hasn't been on Tuesday at 8AM (EST) for over two now. Not on Monday either.

The same here. I recorded it 3-4 weeks ago on Tuesday 8:00-8:10am ET.

P.S. I hope they fix that pattern though. It doesn't show correct overscan values!

It didn't show up in the E* PG, but I set a manual timer and it recorded perfectly.
