Bell could only add FuelTV and HD Net if they were approved by the CRTC and the app. for HD Net's been collecting dust for quite some time.

Just received new 'Simplified Channel Guide' from Bell dated Nov. 1, 2005.

They are moving (or moved) a few channels around. Once change I don't understand is HD 829. Currently this channel shows full time HD content in a loop. New paper guide show a new channel called 'Barker Channel' at 829. Does anyone know about this service?

What will happen with the HD loop?

Also missing is the new HD Raptor channel on the guide

TJ77, thanks for the info. I'll see if I can get more the source to spit out some more substantial details.

And I confirmed with BEV CSR that they no longer have an additional receiver or 6 unit limit.

"Barker Channel" means a "demo channel" - also called a demo loop. It's not a new channel. It's the same one, just with a fancy new name

CGTV(Casino & Gambling TV) is now available on Channel 274.

Seems to be alot of poker on that channel.

atari8472 · 2006-01-31, 11:47 PM

cool. here's to hoping they "unhide" Gol TV on ch. 404 as well. CGTV and Gol TV were put up on Nimiq 2 at the same time back in Nov 1st 2005

... and btw. it's Casino and Gaming TV ;-)

With the recent upgrades to the 5200 software, Channel M in Vancouver is now available on the regular receiver instead of just with the HD box. Now I can watch Law & Order with Chinese and Hindi commercials... very cool.
