They do play with us. :)
Spooling at midnight [PDT], for short amount of time and cover small number of boxes (shouldn't be random SNs).
I see on 129W tp21 a few reserved PIDs : 0x08C0/1 and 0x08E2/3, while 0x08E4/5 has ANB1/BLB1 post S2.08 gamma version for 270 boxes.

S209 here, now. We'll see how it goes with the PTAT crash/reboot thing tonight. 4/26/2012 2:48AM. Joey is still at S260.

I monitored the DNL on 119tp19 from 10:30pm to 7:30am ET overnight and did not see any changes. I can't run it 24/7 as I get too many continuity errors on TP19 and it slows down my reception of SDTs for uplink activity monitoring.

No crash. Screen blanked for about two seconds, then resumed as PTAT kicked in.

It must be 129W tp21.

So if I monitored 129/21 I'd see the download? Seems odd that every DNL channel is on 119/19 but the monitor isn't seeing beyond S207.

They're use for the short [gamma test spool] a 'backyard's' tp21 on 129W as less loaded mux. At least it 's normal QPSK type...

You can't say - "every" if you 'll take time to check all 6 WA FW tpns; some of them has different sets of FW.

S209 Hopper and S260 Joey came at 2:30am ET. I managed to leave my receiver off long enough this morning to get it. :)

Confirmed through Menu-Recordings Transfer "1000 GB" total space.

A little delayed in looking ... I did not see S209 release notes on the DISH support website but S208 notes were there and have been posted in the S208 thread.

A good list of upgrades for those getting S208/S209.

I'm wondering if S209 is another limited release? My Bedroom Hopper is still on S207.

I don't receive 129 at this time. My satellite receiver is attached to an Eastern Arc dish and the uplink activity "scanner" is watching 119.

"Scanner" can pull NIT/SDT from any sat/tpn ... Perhaps you could add D300 for 129W ?

I have a 1000 Plus dish ... but either the LNB failed or the rosebush grew too close or a tree off my property is too tall. Since the dish I use for TV is separate I have not fought the issue.
