OK, so now we have TWO new TP's lit up on 61.5 (23 and 27), each with two "LTD" channels on them. Testing to move some SD channels there to free up space for HD on Rainbow 1?

I think they are being used to carry slates regarding the Young Broadcasting dispute. But it does provide plentiful evidence that there is more HD at 61.5 to match the space coming to 129 shortly. TP 23 (and TP 17) are both empty, but can be used for spots. 7 HS spaces testing on 110, and they should soon have at least space for 21 more on 129 and 61.5. I don't want to hear bandwidth as an excuse next year.
