From the part of the page you didn't quote:

Indianapolis and Raleigh are now scheduled for "later this fall"...

Other than that, there has been no timeframe announced for any individual market and no indication of what order the remaining markets may become available.​

This is getting ridiculous...later later later...


OKC has been on the Fall of 2006 list for what seems like forever and I can never find any updates.. calls to Dish simply get canned answers... after losing my distants ( which I am 80 miles from a major city) I'm about to pull the plug on these guys.. Local HD OKC or Tulsa would certainly make me think about staying...

Kinda pisses me off that where I live I qualified for distants and only lost them because of the greed of DishNetwork giving them to anyone that asked...

Been a subscriber for 7 years.. it won't be 8 if they don't get some of this stuff done ASAP....

My guess is that the rest of them might get added sometime next year. Either way I e-mailed Dish to let them know many people would like to see these added so will let folks know the response I get back.

wonder why that sounds familar?...oh yea...that's what they said last year

 

[Poke]

I dont know about what they said last year but I think we will get them sometime soon. Either way not that big of a deal it takes time to where many people think things happen overnight. If folks want their locals in HD that bad can not waite untill Dish adds them then get a OTA. I think we will get them maybe not when we want them.
