FM and TV catches tonight in Austin

perhaps i should have posted earlier, but I've spent the past 4-5 DX'ing for the first time with my Sony XDR-F1HD. it all started with Houston around 10pm. A lot of FM's were booming in like locals but none ever locked in HD. The unit had no problems pulling in first adjcents all night long. I figured hey, if FM's are coming in this good, lets see what the TV side is doing. So I got out my Terk HDTVa and sure enough... my attention quickly turned to the TV side.

best "catch" was at 230am when I noticed I had XHOR analog 14 Azteca 7 on the TV. I ID'd XHAAA 93.1 La Caliente Reynosa MX.

On the TV side I watched it sweep from Houston (had most of the analogs and KRIV-DT and KHOU-DT for 2-3 hours) down the coast through Victoria (had 25/15.x most of the night), SA WOAI-DT and KABB-DT made brief appearances, CC (had KZTV analog 10 for quite a while and for a brief period KIII-DT and KZTV-DT), then RGV (had analog 23 for quite a while) and XHOR. I might update more tomorrow on the TV boards since that's where I spent most of my time, but it's bedtime now. it's all over for the most part.
 
When can they be full powered HD signals? I'd like to be able to get all of Houston HD FM out at my place in Lavaca county. Right now its just spotty with a few of them comng in HD.
 
When can you pick up the SA TV stations? every evening or just once and a while?
