someone needs to kick the uplink machine again

That's a promising development. May not lead to anything, but at least there is some life on the 4K front!

true good point wondering the same thing also dish should get rolling on the 4k channels as soon as possible look what directv is doing with the 4k content. at least dish could get us discovery,Espn,4kuniverse https://4kuniversenow.com/ and the rest of the SES channels also added too

Well remember the $10.00 hd fee? I'm betting we will see a new 4K fee in its place as soon as they start adding any 4K channels.

who knows what it will be directv has three full time 4k channels dish can start by adding alot of them and start finishing adding the rest of the HD channels soon 4k will be a standard like HD started along time ago

Just remember that the 500 channels are a PPV movie area.

 

[MikeD-C05]

HD started in the early 2000s. It took to last year before Dish added HD feeds to the Welcome pack and Smart packs. So don't look for 4K to be the standard for a longtime if ever. We still have Sd channels on the sat service. Besides 8k will be out in about three years anyway.

My guess, Super Bowl.

Problem with SB all the locals sell spots too. Probably another specialty channel in 4K, similar to how HD started with a couple channels.

 

[Bobby]

My guess, Super Bowl.

While Fox is going to have a ton of 4K and 8K cameras in the stadium, they have said that they will not be televising the game in 4K...

I guess my guess wasn't very good then. Thanks for the info.

I think you put the wrong icon in there, Hall. It should have been . Or are the thumbs up icons just your subtle way of saying you hope James Long's website crashes and burns?

 

[pattykay]

...you hope James Long's website crashes and burns?

But then where would we get our uplink reports from?
