Re: So we have NBC Sports HD, ESPN HD, so where is CBS Sports HD Crobert-
There's not currently.
VHO8 in Philly is bent over when it comes to locals.
Because of the footprint it covers, we have to fit room for:
- Philly Locals (SD & HD)
- NYC Locals (SD & HD - only for Mercer County, NJ customers)
- Comcast Sportsnet Philly
- The newly added MSG HD channels (potentially up to 4 - again, only for the MC, NJ customers)
- Sportsnet NY HD (for MC, NJ customers)
- MASN HD (for Delaware customers)
- Comcast Sportsnet Mid-Atlantic HD(for Central & Southern DE customers)
Harrisburg and Pittsburgh have plenty of local QAM space left over.
This is also the reason that Delaware customers are the ONLY ONES that do not yet receive MASN2 HD.
However, our lovable Twitter Joe did comment recently that "Regional sports networks" would be some of the 1st new HD channels to be added this year. May be a favorable statement... |

| Thanks. You guys are even more crammed than us. We just have Baltimore and Washington channels. You are handling PHL, NYC and DE. |

Perhaps easier than waiting for IPTV would be to split VHO8 in two. e.g. make Mercer County VHO8a.
Seems like Philly & burbs are paying the price for being in the middle of two areas that are in two markets. |
