Master List of HD channels

[Optical Serenity]

Can we get a list of all the HD channels, make it a sticky, and update it when new channels come out? I use a custom favorites list and it would be great to be able to reference a master list here and just update the list. I've basically made a custom favorites group of just HD and like 5 SD channels.

List matches what I have. I notice that you did NOT include channel 99 HD-PPV, or any of the part-time RSN's. As a point of reference, DISH has 40 full-time HD nationals without its HD-PPV channels counting compared to DirecTV's 47.

On the HD locals side, DirecTV is leading there hands down. Those are still the most viewed channels overall.

BTW - FiOS is a distant 4th with 22 HD nationals. They lag even behind Cablevision now.

I knew the day would come when D* propelled it's way to the top but It's still taking some time to get use to it. It's also nice to see in balck and white. Funny how all the talk from cable and E* and Fiso subs no longer is about D* picture quality and number of HD channels.

Yes, fortunatly all the DISH people that have jumped on the D* people for the last 2 years have left the forum ......

They're all over on their forum now, wondering when they're getting new channels...

 

[Optical Serenity]

I came here tonight looking for the exact same thing.

A master list would be nice to make an easy Favorites List.
I have no need to view any standard def channels during my channel flipping.

I know that I do not go over there ....
Are alot of the D* people going over there bragging about all of our HD channels now, like they did here ?
I suppose there may be a few, but nothing like the were when they were swarming over here.

btw,
I have nothing against any DISH sub's, just don't need the ..... thrown in our faces when we are waiting for new sats and channels to arrive.

Guy's,
Making up a HD list in your favorites is Not a hard thing to do ...
Just set it for No channels and check mark the ones you want to add........
Easy to edit weekly as well !

I didn't spend a lot of time over there, but I honestly didn't notice anyone over there bragging... I answered a couple of questions, but that was it.
