How do I know what HD channels I get?

The HD simulcast channels you receive depends your current programming package. Provided you have Advanced Receiver Service-HD, you automatically get the HD versions of the channels included in your programming package. For example, if you get ESPN in your current package, and you have or add Advanced Receiver Service-HD, you'll receive ESPN HD. If you subscribe to HBO, you'll be able to receive the HBO HD channels if you have or add Advanced Receiver Service-HD.

Don't forget that an HD television, 5-LNB dish and DIRECTV HD equipment are also required. All programming subject to change at any time.
