    Default WFAA-8 in Dallas starts HD broadcasts today!!!

    They look VERY good. Even most of their "on location" footage is in HD (both live and taped). I usually stick to Fox 4 with the Brick Tamland look alike doing the nightly weather...but WFAA just looks too good to NOT watch it.

    That blows I get WFAA in San Angelo but its not in HD, Suddenlink did add about 5 new HD channels now though so I'm happier. I can watch National Geographic, A&E, TNT, FoodNetwork, and HGTV now. As long as I have ESPN, HBO, Discovery, and National Geographic in HD I'll never watch regular resolution again.

    When did sudden link add more HD channels, and what channel are they on?


    I get the basic HD package which includes local channels, HDNet/Movies, Discovery HD Theater and ESPN.

    They've had the equipment to do it for a while but it was my understanding that either yesterday or today was their first night to do the evening news in HD. Either way...it looks very good!!!

    It's been in HD for a week or so already. Maybe it wasn't full HD all week, I remember seeing some onsite stuff that wasn't in HD. I'm pretty sure that they went to HD broadcast soon after moving into the victory place.

    I don't think we got the new channels here. What HD plan are you on?

    Just the regular HD with the DVR plan. I did get my bill today and noticed they are charging $2.00 more a month for the extra channels but thats not a big deal I love them.
