The ones that are the same programming as the sd counterparts will have the same numbers. As far as the other channels, I don't think D* has said.

I mean TWC is channel 362, so will the hd version be channel 362. Your receiver will go to the hd channel first.

Hoping for some of the D*Insiders for this ...
