forgot to add to that channel 606-1 outdoor channel hd, now it looks like the players channel is gone from the list, they must of been just testing it.

So - I re-booted both of my HR20-700s and now I do have all of those test type channels.

And like you Scott, when I tune to them they go for a second and then send me back to channel 201.

Interesting

Are you going to call into your contacts and see what's up?

Hope you feel a lot better today BTW.

I did a RBR on my HR20-100 the other night and got all those test channels too. Except on some I would tune to the channel, I'd get a second or two of programming then get sent back to channel 201. Then when I'd look at the guide the new test channel would be gone.
