I believe the Demo channel (Dish Aquarium channel) is the only HD channel on 61.5 but not on129.

Some HD channels are on 110 and the others (mostly Voom) are on both 61.5 and 129. Local HD's can be here, there or other places like 118.5, etc. What Dish do you have and what is your local DMA? Answer these questions and you will get good answers.

No, just the demo channel and maybe a PI or two, You are not losing out on anyother HD channel by not having 61.5
