I subscribe to AT 250 + HD Essentials. I just noticed last night that I am getting Universal HD and HDNet Movies, which should be HD Ultimate channels. I am not getting MGM HD, WFN HD, or Smithsonian HD.

Is this happening to anyone else? Is this a free promotion or some wackiness on Dish's system. I don't mind getting the extra channels, but I am suprised by it.

Someone mentioned that UniversalHD may be in preview because of the Olympics. I don't know about HDNet Movies.

It used to show the HD channels as well, thought it would still be doing it.

Are you sure you are getting HDNet Movies?

HDNet has two channels...

HDNet is in the Essential package. HDNet Movies is in the Ultimate package. Sometimes there is a movie on the regular HDNet channel and this has confused more than one person to think they have the movie channel.

According to the Uplink Activity Report, UNIHD was in Preview until just a couple hours ago.

I definitely had Universal HD, but it is gone now (8 PM). I think I was mistaken on HDNET Movies. It was HDTheater.
