Does Vast give you the new channel 90 in HD
Permalink  

Hello Travelers 

                    I am curious as my sat dish and cables etc are all packed away and I'm too lazy to get them out and set up. Here in Melbourne we were recently  blessed with HD Channel 90. I went out to the van and did a channel search and was pleasantly surprised to find my 5 year old Sphere tv that came with the Jayco picked up all of the new channels including 90 HD.

So does anyone know if Vast accommodates this terrific new HD Station and actually transmit it in HD.

Just had a quick look and no sign of 90HD only Gem on channel 90 but I'm still on SA bouquet even though I'm in Vic currently. No SBS food channel either, maybe we are just second class citizens

Channel 9 is not available on VAST so neither will the HD version.

Yep, Delta 18 got it right. Have a look at the Sat TV Guide - www.sattvguide.com.au/. What's the difference between ordinary TV and HD TV?

 I had a look at your link you are right channel 90 is Gem. Your question about what is the difference between SD and HD is explained here.

Thanks for your help Dave.  /  Delta.
