I am SO glad that my HD TiVo finally has the guide right. This has been the first time it took a day and a half for it to update.
I'm using the Motorola DCX3400 and it took until today to get the channel names updated. This is my first time going through this (new Comcast TV subscriber) so I can't compare to previous changes.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22965225 Wed, 02 Sep 2009 19:37:05 EDT Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22965045 engelke2007 : I am SO glad that my HD TiVo finally has the guide right.

C-SPAN3/Sportsman Channel/Hallmark Movie Channel has been on Comcast for awhile and your just getting it.
Good to know your getting Ovation because Comcast Olathe/MO doesn't have it or so on yet like all those HD Channels just Comcast to be annouced Channels 496-500 and 596-600.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22657936 Sun, 05 Jul 2009 17:46:18 EDT Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22657524 Zahl : That is definitely an impressive lineup but I wonder why they are holding back in my area.

I will have 106 HD channels (which exclude the "channels" that are merely a shortcut to an HD section of On Demand) when this is done.

Last month, the Portland area underwent Project Cavalry, which eliminated 40 analog Expanded Basic channels. We got 31 new HD channels then.

With this, virtually the entire SD Expanded Basic lineup and most of the premium channels will now be in HD.
Same here!
I seem to be about a month behind you guys for more HD channels! :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655269 Sat, 04 Jul 2009 21:18:25 EDT Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22655095 anon : I will have 106 HD channels (which exclude the "channels" that are merely a shortcut to an HD section of On Demand) when this is done.
