Re: [Channels] Re: Channel changes 8/1Web- Yeah, they say the same here in DE. I think it's just an oversight in the temporary naming.
VC304 would simply refer to "Virtual Channel 304" - which doesn't exist.
Once they remove the temporary "move" messages, these will fade off into the night.
So who's left?
By my count we still have VHO's 4, 5, and 9 (at a minimum). |

JeepMatt,
I can see that MASN2 HD can be an oversight, since your VHO, and Mine say the same thing. Plus we do not receive that channel.
However, I really do hope that channel 667 "VC304" becomes DiY HD. It would be the + 500 rule, and it is a great channel. I believe they launched the HD channel back in 2010. Or around then. |

Yes, the move happened here in VHO5, but in the process now I don't get Universal Sports anymore. It was supposed to be removed from the Extreme package on September 15. Someone messed up and took it out a month early. |

I have the old prime package and just started getting Universal Sports Yesterday. Wonder if that is a screw up as well. |

WLIW is scheduled for September - for some reason they decided to handle that separately. |

SECN HD will likely be added this week. Then I'm going to guess that 3-4 HD's will be added before the end of 2014. GUESSING >>> DIYHD, H2HD, some dumb Byron Allen Crud HD, OVA HD (I always hope), FS2HD (which seems rather lame at the moment, TCM HD ...... |

Someone messed up and took it out a month early. Universal Sports was never part of Extreme. It has always been Ultimate only since it was first added last October, although there was a free preview of it until January 31. The one being removed from Extreme is Universal HD, channel 567. said by charliewatts:FS2HD (which seems rather lame at the moment) Right up until next Tuesday when the UEFA Champions League starts, at which point it becomes a must-have for soccer fans. |

They must have had a free preview over the weekend as I was able to watch Universal Sports with my ExtremeHD for a few days. |

Any Word from VHO 4/9?Curious if anyone in VHO's 4, 9, or 9a can confirm this made it there?
If so, I believe that should wrap up the 8/1 moves. |

Re: [Channels] Channel changes 8/1I see we are losing CLOO which is part of NBC. For a second there I was wondering why it was being dropped and I remembered I didn't have Xfinity anymore. Yikes.
Sorry to see this channel go. I love crime shows. |

Sorry to see this channel go. I love crime shows. It's not much of a loss. Cloo just repeats all the same shows like SVU and Monk that you can find on 7 other networks. |

I still see 186 here in VHO4 but I see the other channels seem to be at their new locations. But was CLOO one of the stations that was supposed to be moving?
Boy what a pain trying to mess around with channel numbers. More reason for me to deal with them as little as possible. |

No...it was supposed to go bye-bye... Cloo is supposed to be removed "On or after August 15th". So my guess would be sometime next week. |

Is there a reason why Cloo is being removed? My wife does like that channel. |

If Verizon feels there is low viewership for a particular channel (Byron Allen's .TV channels not included) and it is relatively expensive to carry, the channel will be on the chopping block. |

Betamax76....Thank you! I know that it was written that it repeats many shows, but the wife is very unhappy about it being removed. I wonder how many people watch the.TV channels? Those are the ones that should be on the chopping block. |

Sometimes they stay two weeks, sometimes two months, not a definite answer. |

'Tis gone as of Monday (8/18) in Reston, VA and actually, I'll miss it as I liked the reruns of Law & Order: Criminal Intent but fortunately, that can be found on a couple of other channels... |

These channels that do nothing but repeat the same shows all day should all go. |

Don't the premium channels do that?
There is a niche out there; me included that can down and watch certain shows over and over again. Like Law & Order and Gunsmoke; when they have their marathons, I'm all in. |
