The rest of the 700/800 block now have slates on the channels

The channels should go away in about a week and a half. :)

They definately have waited a fair enough time. So only people who will be annoyed are those who have waited this long to change their favorites/timers, etc. I switched my favorites/timers twice (once to the 8000 channels, and then to the 2-69 channels on the newer recievers)

thanks john - i forgot about this :)

I am pretty sure all the Local channels (or their slates) are gone now from 119's 700/800 block....

[Edit] - yup - they are gone now, but - lol - looks like they have been gone for some time already :)

In the other forum someone posted that the new international channels will take over this block.

i think i mentioned that here too (in different thread - was just a guess)
