Okay following initial reports of Dialog TV carrying out testing Discovery HD and the subsequent loss of quality on certain other HD channels, it looks like the testing has ceased and Dialog may have dropped the plans to add this new channel. If there is no capacity then Dialog shouldn't add the channel. It's very good that infotainment channels (aka ...

In a move that can be classed as well below stupid, Dialog TV have decided to replace "Australia Network" with a "new LOCAL channel" from 26th August onwards, according to a scroll presently running on Dialog TV.
