Even for satellite customers? The LDL only appears during the satellite lf
That LDL is part of the HD Satellite LF itself. :yes:

That's weird. So it's the same for SD too like the LDL during the national programming for SD Satellite customers is generated by a STAR e.g. intellistar?

That's not being generated by a STAR; it's coming straight from network control in Atlanta.

Yeah, and they used the 4:3 precip maps on PME, apparently to make up for using the 16:9 ones on DP. :P

C'mon map people! Get it right! If we have to, then **** it, we'll DO IT LIVE!

Somebody just broke the HD feed on DirecTV. I haven't seen the DirecTV "technical difficulties" screen since meltdown day!

Yeah, DTV is moving channels around, and have been for I think about 48 hours. Channel maps are staying the same, but the TP's are changing.

Yes. Search YouTube for Bill O'Reilly. You'll see what he was referring to probably within the first few results.  :twothumbs:

You can tell TWC is getting excited; this morning they pulled out the red, black, and white BOTTOMLINE graphic for Dolly.

Yep, exactly. So I'm not really surprised that they were wrong, although, they did make sense. :yes:
