I am thinking of making the switch from DTV to Fios. I already have FIOS internet.

I am looking for a channel guide so I can see what channels are available under what packages.

Is HowardTV available with FIOS?

Here is the channel line for FiOS for the Gulf Coast:

and no, HowardTV is not available on FiOS.

Is there a site where I can see the two packages side by side ? (Premier vs. La Conexion).

Yeah, I know...I was looking for something that would list the channels side by side.

I looked at the pdf channel listing and I didn't see 3-5, 8-2, 10-2, or any other digital sub-channels that are available with an off-air ATSC tuner.
Are they carried on the fios lineup?

3-5 is on channel 805.
8-2 is on channel 850.
10-2 is on channel 851.

There is two other sub channels on 864 and 865. I am not at home right now to look but they are either WEDU or WUSF or one of both.

FYI, the channel line-up posted on the link above is out of date, at least as of today. If you scroll down to the bottom of the second page you will see that it's dated 10/06. The line-up that I got in the mail from Verizon a couple of weeks ago is dated 11/06.

Even the 11/06 line-up is out of date. For example, the 10/06 posted line-up shows only three channels in the 850-865 range, while the 11/06 version shows seven channels. But one of those channels is mis-labeled on both line-ups. Channel 864 is listed as Tube Music Network, but it's actually WEDU-DT, a digital simulcast of analog channel 3. I wish Verizon would be more diligent about keeping their downloadable channel line-ups up to date.

I know what you mean. When I posted that link it was the only thing they had which was 10/06.

Here is the current as of today which will be 12/06. Nothing really change between the 11/06 and this one.
