Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st.

I will have 106 HD channels (which exclude the "channels" that are merely a shortcut to an HD section of On Demand) when this is done.

Last month, the Portland area underwent Project Cavalry, which eliminated 40 analog Expanded Basic channels. We got 31 new HD channels then.

With this, virtually the entire SD Expanded Basic lineup and most of the premium channels will now be in HD.

Same here!
I seem to be about a month behind you guys for more HD channels!

cypherstream Looking forward to the future of things. Premium,MVM join:2004-12-02 Reading, PA clubs:	Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st. Wow thats a generous lineup! Too bad it will most likely be at least 2 years for my area to follow suit. You are in a lucky system blessed with very talented hard working Comcast employees.

mikedz4 join:2003-04-14 Weirton, WV ·DIRECTV ·Verizon Online DSL ·Comcast Digital Vo.. ·Comcast	when will they put local on the 8s in hd? They've been working on it for 2 years now!!! Maybe that is why comcast is hesitant to introduce it to more areas? I also wish nbc would come up with a replacement for weather plus that all nbc stations could use. I miss having local meteorologists show the forecast for my local area even if it was only update 3 times a day.

engelke2007 join:2007-01-13 Beaverton, OR	Wow...thanks, clbuck, for posting this! My bill is being generated at this time, so I didn't know the change was happening. That means a total of 91 HD channels that I will have and 14 that are possible, but I won't get because I don't subscribe to Starz, Cinemax, Showtime, or TMC. I'm still quite happy.

gate1975mlm Premium join:2001-09-30 Philadelphia, PA	Why can't I get a letter in the mail saying 32 new HD channels are coming soon?????????? Why Comcast Why??????????

Zahl TinBoy join:2003-02-12 Watertown, MA	That is definitely an impressive lineup but I wonder why they are holding back in my area. Boston is supposedly all digital but they are still stuck at barely 30 HD stations with no eta on new ones. Doesn't make sense tbh, especially when they offer some seriously insane internet speeds.

Mgsports join:2004-11-11 Olathe, KS	Why would they put Style,Oxygen and Hallmark back on Analog? C-SPAN3/Sportsman Channel/Hallmark Movie Channel has been on Comcast for awhile and your just getting it. Good to know your getting Ovation because Comcast Olathe/MO doesn't have it or so on yet like all those HD Channels just Comcast to be annouced Channels 496-500 and 596-600.

JamesDax join:2001-02-24 Philadelphia, PA	Comcast should've built there new building in Portland and gave Philly the new HD channels. -- He who lives the longest will know the most.

co @atx.net	I am so jealous. I live in Cherry Hill, NJ, and we have about 25 HD Channels. We should be getting that lineup in 2025:)

Hey, thanks for posting this. Just Monday I ordered the Premier Triple Play under the "Locked and Loaded" promotion. Had been on Dish (TV), Qwest (telephone) and Comcast (Internet). Now moving everything to Comcast. I'll have all these HD channels plus an upgrade to Ultra (from my current Blast!) on Internet. I'm really looking forward to it. Unfortunately, they are so busy that my install isn't scheduled for two more weeks.

Oregonian Premium join:2000-12-21 West Linn, OR	Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st. Yes, looking good here too. Most are showing up as "To be announced" but I am sure that will correct itself as the box catches up.

nevadabell Premium join:2001-05-11 Albany, OR	This was just sent to me that the channel that was to be on 891 was moved to 892 because there was a vod shortcut channel on 891 also that guide info should be updated no later than Wed.

earletp join:2004-02-03 PDX	Re: [HD] Portland, OR new HD channels effective Sept 1st. Seems odd that they moved DisneyXD-HD, which was grouped with the other kid-friendly channels (744), all the way 796 which places it at the end of the "standard channels" and right next to the SD Adult pay-per-view channels of 801-803. The only other kid-based programming in that part of the guide are the specialty Premiums.

I'm using the Motorola DCX3400 and it took until today to get the channel names updated. This is my first time going through this (new Comcast TV subscriber) so I can't compare to previous changes.
