What is the status? I herd they now have Nashville. The Bay Area is the 5th largest American metropolin area. When will we get it? Thanks!

Mid to late April

Do you know if they'll be on 129 or Echostar 10 on 110?

[BFG]

it seems they'd be going on Echostar 10 on 110

If they were planning on adding more markets to 129 or 61.5 they would've done it, but the wait seems to indicate they are done with those and are now waiting on ECHO X

There are reports that 129 does not cover Northern CA very well. I am told that when E10 goes active at 110 then the E6 that is currently at 110 will be moved to 129. Maybe this will cover S.F. better and then they will add S.F. HD locals.

If this scenario is correct then E10 should go active mid April. Then it should take 60 days for E6 to get to 129. So mid June?

Since San Francisco is getting closer....any word on when Sacramento will be receiving their HD locals?
