Got 86, 87, and 587.WOO HOO!!! NHL HD!!!!!!

Issues on 587 with some pixelation and audio dropout. It is very choppy right now. 

but still no 899 and 920 out here on So Cal. 

850 shows in the Guide with Program Data, and I can not tune it.

Nascar: MLB Network is not extra, NHL is and requires the $7.99 that you mentioned.

So I guess the Sports Tier isn't going away.

Thanks matcarl.

That Sports Tier stuff is very confusing. Right now it only exists in northern NJ & downstate NY. I'm not sure if they are getting rid of it here or not, but right now that's the only way to get NHL Network.

Virginia is tricky, there are two or three areas that are on his list that cover parts of Virginia and Maryland.

Does that mean Pittsburgh isn't getting Encore HD anytime soon since the box is blacked out next to the channel?

Techman: what are you talking about? Center Ice HD is on channel 1474 and has been available for several weeks. I think people were asking about NBA League Pass maybe?

Sanchez (or Techman),

 

I'm VHO14 - Harrisburg, PA.  The NHL Network SD and HD (87 and 587) were released to my market today.  However, both channels come up unavailable immediately, and then after a couple of seconds say you are not subscribed to this channel.  I have the HD extreme package, so these should be working.  Also, same thing with the NHL Center Ice HD channel that was just released, channel 1474.  And I subscribe to Center Ice.

 

I unplugged the box to reset it, but that didn't work.

According to the information I have recieved VHO 7, 13, 14 and 15 did not recieve these channels.  We have not heard why nor have i recieved any other information as to when they will be launched in those areas.  They will be programmed into the guide but there is no access to them for anyone in these areas just yet.

Any information on when VHO3 (SoCal) may get 850 (I can see the channel and info in the guide but can not tune), 899 (Coming Soon), and 920 (Coming Soon)? 

Thx, 

Carl

Any updates on this Techman?  As of this morning (Monday) still not seeing 87/587 in Harrisburg, PA (VHO 14).  Also, not sure if you mentioned it, but we are seeing 1474 (the NHL Center Ice HD channel) at all.  Seems like everybody else got this when they got the NHL Network.

Hey Techman28,

Thanks for the info! Now that we have the MLB  and NHL Netowrk, any idea when we can expect to see NBATV and NBATV HD in the Dallas area?

I just got a Verizon FIOS Channel Lineup ad (in Flower Mound) and it does have the NBA League Pass "coming soon", channel 589 (NBA HD) and 1490-1499 NBA League Pass.  I sure hope that we get it before the All Star games.
