[Scott Greczkowski]

Where you been Rob? We were talking about this last week.

 

[BFG]

Yeah why aren't folks finding this?

I keep all this info in my FAQ sticky - Dish Network Threads, Packages, Fees, Locals, & Satellite Info

and This week's uplink activity is also stickied - Uplink Activity for the week of May 01 2006

 

[JamesJ]

so whats the next set of cities? seems like they are moving at a pretty good clip! good job dish! but really does anyone know the next set of locals?

 

[John Corn]

I hope Cleveland Ohio will be soon.

 

[JamesJ]

that makes two of us, that dang WKYC and WOIO get me every time, they are my two lower powers ones and I have to pick between the two which one I want, or I have to adjust my antenna every 5 minuts :-( would be great for even soft HD picture, better then none!

 

[John Corn]

Stuart, I would think Cleveland market would be soon.
Hopefully before next football season.

 

[skyeblues]

We haven't got them yet in Houston. I knew they had been uploaded to the satellite from the earlier posts last week regarding this upload; but I vaguely remember seeing speculation that the upload to 110 was a temporary move, before transferreing them to one of the other satellites (65.5 or 129)/ If this doesn't happen and the upload stays where it is, - I will be set!

 

[nazz]

I'm hoping for Indianapolis soon.

 

[DishDave]

When is Tampa coming ?

 

[BFG]

Not this year.

 

[rickaren]

I'm hoping for Indianapolis soon.

Why ? Indianapolis is one of the best for OTA (HD) in all of the US! If it is just HD Lite I could care less. I get them ALL up here in Noblesville and they look great . I even get WB4 from Winfall in HD when they have any HD! I understand it will be in June and at no additional charge for me, (OTA is free too) with the Vip 622 & DISH 1000 already installed with the Platinum HD Package.

 

[ChetK]

So what day is this supposed to happen in Houston?

 

[sfollenius]

Bring on Greenville Spartanburg. We need it bad, OTA sucks due to terrain and our DMA is widely Spread (Greenville, Spartanburg and Asheville NC)

 

[jmcgee_jr]

I dont want to hear about widely spread DMA try Vermont area. Plattsburg, Burlington. Im over 60+ miles away and like oh I dont know 3+ mountain ranges LOL Theres not a pigs chance in hell im going to get OTA. And lovely ass charter said they arent planning on HD till past 2008. Sigh. Why wont they go under. Adelphia is our other cable company and they do HD.

 

[Smoky]

I'm 120 miles from Greenville,SC with 6,000 foot peaks on each side of me. The mountains of Western North Carolina should be a DMA by its self, those are just hills in Vermont(east coast standards,not the rockies). The only TV signal we received when I was growing up was Knoxville,Tn (WATE). When I had Voom installed they,the CSR's, could not understand how far from Greenville,SC my house was. They sent a company from SC to do the install,this was after the one from Winston-Salem,NC (200 miles) refused. Can't get HD OTA, SO NO HD for me anytime soon, unless from Dish. People look at a map.

 

[Smoky]

Oh by the way, I agree with sfollenius.

Yeah, Indy is pretty good. I get all of them except WB4 clear up her in Lafayette.

HD WB? Wow that would be great, wonder when/if they will turn that on for those of us in LA.

 

[rickaren]

Yeah, Indy is pretty good. I get all of them except WB4 clear up her in Lafayette.

You should have no problem receiving WTTV on 29-1 WTTK-DT and now 29-2 from Windfall? Have you scanned for it? Yes it is low powered but Kokomo is not that far, is it? Good Luck!
