New HD Channels?

Oscar Nelson: "Are there any plans to add 1226 and 1251?"

I just did, and it equals 2477.

Seriously, since channel 1226 and 1251 are likely different in each area, a little more info would help.

In my area, there aren't even SD channels 226 and 251.

After further review, 1226 is just More Max - East Coast feed. 1251 is TMCExtra aka TMC2W, and I do have 226 and 251. I came across these 2 HD's whilst perusing Zap2it TV Listings for Cox Digital (85224) and wondered if they had some insider info or were just wrong.

One &/or the other must be true. Thanks for the informative answer.

...and also for the jocularity.

Oscar, 

Channel 1226 MoreMAX (East) HD is available for all subscribers of Cinemax in the zip code 85224. We carry 251 TMC Xtra, but not in HD. I've submitted a request for the HD version of the channel to our Programming Team on your behalf.

1. If you are going to submit 251, why not add 204, 223, 226 thru 229, 241, 244, 251, 261, 262, 264, 265, 266, 360, 364, 366, 368, 370, 372 & 374. My opinion is that all premiums should be HD. I just noted 1251 because I saw it was listed as available in my zip code. 2. I have Cinemax and all other premiums, but I do not receive 1226. Why not? Should I call customer service?

Oscar, 

We are constantly on the look out for new programming to bring to our customers and evaluate our lineup accordingly to bring the most value possible to our customers. Here 's the line up for 85224 if you would like to refer to it.  http://media.cox.com/support/print_media/tv/cls/arizona/cl_phoenix.pdf

 I must apologize and state that channel 1226 is a Contour HD channel. What happens when you tune to channel 1226 on a Contour receiver?

What's a contour receiver?

A Contour receiver (DVR) receives the 1GHz/H.264 channels. Current DVRs are the 8642HDC, 8742HDC, 8752HDC, and 9865HDC [anything that runs the Trio/Contour guide.]
