    Is there any word about these two channels being added to DirecTV's HD options? I'm sick of the letterbox and crappy image. And any word on Galavision and Telemundo HD on DirecTV?

    I would love them in HD on DirecTV. I have the En Espanol add-on package.

    A lot of Telemundo locals in HD are being launched in time for the olympics, no word on the national feed though.

    One thing I am keeping an eye on is if DirecTV would launch Time Warner Deportes (RSN for the LA Lakers and Galaxy) in HD come October. If so, then the other HD capable spanish channels would soon follow.

    Do you have a list of which local cities DirectTV will be adding an HD Telemundo to?

    I can verify that Telemundo 48 San Jose is now in HD via DIRECTV, just in time for the Olympics and Liga MX.

    I am not sure where you are, but TELEMUNDO HD is an over the air channel. I recumbent to go to costco and get your self an Indor Antena. By the way, of all the indoor antennas I tested, this one is the best. Winegard FL5000C FlatWave Translucent HDTV Antenna.

    The addition of HD to local channels in Chicago solves my problem for Telemundo. Now I'm hoping for Fox Deportes, ESPN Deportes, and Galavision.

    Just an update, DirecTV has added Telemundo HD to the following cities:

    KVEA 52 - Los Angeles
    KTMD 47 - Houston

    In testing is KTAZ 39 in Phoenix, there is no confirmation about the other three markets that are due up. The source is the same as before.

    Moderators, if a separate thread is needed I will happily comply with assistance.

    Dang I have DishTV and no HD for Telemundo.

    But Galavision is HD, so you win some and you lose some.

    Dish has been making noise with their Roku partnership, in relation to futbol they will have access to the Brasil leagues, which is something I'd like to see more of in the States.

    DirecTV has been adding Spanish HD locals all over the place. Thus the time will come soon enough for the Spanish Cable networks.
