Those two channels have been there for a while...

They really need to move NATGEO WILD out of 296 I almost always forget about it since it's not part of my 500's scanning.
I am really enjoying the programming.
Praying for AMC HD that would be amazing

15 days to Breaking Bad 5. C'mon Rogers!

Cartoon network should be working July 4th on Rogers, not sure the channel but they advertised it a lot at the Dome last night during the Jays game.

Were they saying like July 4 on Rogers? I hope so

if CN does not go onto Rogers I will be leaving....

It's not on Rogers.

Last night I called Rogers, and their CSR said they are getting it but don't have a date. I'll take what they say with a grain of salt.

ryandude_12345 · 2012-07-05, 10:28 AM

I was also told that and that they struck a deal with Corus for ABC Spark just don't know when it will be launching. I don't know who to believe anymore

ikm starting to think that they're just telling us what we want to hear so we don't call back..!

MCIBUS · 2012-07-05, 10:42 AM

I've gotten to a point regardless of the provider, when I see the channel in the IPG and its actually working, then I believe(the provider) has added it. Other wise its basically here say.

ryandude_12345 · 2012-07-05, 10:59 AM

I don't understand why they can't just tell us if it is coming? Like not necessarily for CN and ABC Spark, but for all other channels that are soon to come.. It's not hurting anyone telling us? I just don't understand...

Of course it "hurts" them if they announce it prematurely. It would have a deleterious effect on their negotiations with the channel in question (takes away leverage)

ryandude_12345 · 2012-07-05, 12:24 PM

Something is wrong...I called Rogers and asked about Space HD. They said that they did have Space HD and it is on 576? Umm... and they said BravoHD is on 576.. Something is wrong on their system..

bwgreen · 2012-07-05, 01:07 PM

According to the channel list on their website (for Ottawa), 576 is BravoHD - but there is a gap between 574 and 576.

ryandude_12345 · 2012-07-05, 02:18 PM

Its Bravo HD where I am too. I just don't know where Space HD is on 576 since no one has mentioned it on here.
