Do you have the new Blue Bar yet? Perhaps you STAR is updating...

My eyes are starting to hurt. Better go grab a Dew.

No, I live in Hoover, AL.  The blue LDL is only being tested in Atlanta and Pittsburgh.  Still no bar, though.

Just checked the SD channel, still showing the sat LF.  Same thing on the HD channel.

Looks like city names on SkyTracker are now all Helvetica. I guess we won't have to worry about this now, will we?

Ya know, this may sound crazy, but maybe they're working at the headend and they're busy installing the HD STAR. I wouldn't be surprised if it makes a debut today.

Oh, that's cool.  Yea, it could be that.  Heck, for all I know, the STAR could have just gone out!  I just hope we'll also be getting new HD STAR systems today as well.

They actually have been testing out a different font for the last several weeks on SkyTracker for select cities in the southeast and northeast. It looked pretty odd, IMO.

I'm also wondering if the WPS-style maps might be running through SkyTracker. Ever since last weekend, they've actually gained the ability to run WPS through SkyTracker, and Carl Parker had a field day by putting all of his usual telestration on top of the WPS maps to start his segments. He must love it. Further evidence includes a fade between the radar and the surface map earlier this morning; they've been using more elaborate transitional effects to switch sources this morning.

To be honest, I wouldn't be, either.  It would be really awesome if it debuted at 6:08 AM (CT).  We'll just have to wait and see, wait and see...

I find it odd there isn't a new :57 ID background that's more HD-friendly. (ie widescreen).

Final local before the launch....
