Okay. Another SD vs. HD question....if you only have SD, do you still get the HD channels but in SD instead of HD??
There are some HD only channels and these will not be available in an SD version as they require a HD receiver and they require the SL3 or SL5 antenna (direcTV) or the Dish triple LNB. However, there are very few of these channels compared to the overall programming. For example, Food Network on DirecTV is broadcast on 231. If you pull up the guide allowing you to see both HD and SD channels you will see 2 channel 231's. 231-Food and 231 FoodHD.
