SB means subject to blackout.take it that SB means standard broadcast or am I missing something here.

There is no need to map 283 in the east or 285 in the west.bob0082 said:I notice that HD285 is being blacked out by TMN why not just give all viewers the MC. What we need is dedicated Network channels (east-west).
Gone for good. WDIV-DT just couldn't get their HD hardware act togetherI only watch HD channels even when they broadcast std tv programs. I miss Jeopardy 6:30P CST (where's WDIV-DT) put it back.
Exactly a question I have asked many times. Shaw puts cable head end customers ahead of SC customers when it comes to HD programming assignments. It is my understanding that minimum cable head end HD configuration is 3 decoders - 281 + 282 + the movie network for their region. I can't understand why the same program would ever be on 281 + 282.Why are HD281 and HD 282 mostly duplicates?
I would applaude a more structured system. Although I don't feel I have missed any programming with the random HD programming setup, it is often difficult to select programs ahead of time. Even the online PDF file listings don't give you program timing. With the introduction of the 530 PVR, I would like to see a more predictable guide and station lineup. Good news, if it happens.satellite said:Star Choice has started to advertise their HD channels now as:

Exactly, so Cancom can put the omnibus channels for cable companies on the Ciel satellite when it launches and turn all F2 feeds into dedicated channels.bigoranget said:For the most part channels 281 and 282 don't really need to be mapped for StarChoice customers. About 95% of the programs are aired on the other HD channels (283-289).
That's a good thing but I have a few reserved with that.satellite said:Star Choice has started to advertise their HD channels now as:
