Upsamplers, DACs, jitter, shakes and analogue withdrawals, this is it.

Small Dish Sample Rate

Anyone have ANY concrete idea of the Sample Rate of Dishnetwork using the optical out?
I strongly suspect it is 32kbs.
However, after a phone call to tech support (add laugh track) going to the 2nd level, I got NO joy.
In addition, I got a stock answer from the write-in support that 'the information is NOT available'.

Come on, now. SOMEBODY knows at Dish. I mean, when they commissioned the receiver to be made, somebody wrote the spec. It would take somebody 30 seconds to write an e-mail up the line and ASK.

Could it be some kind of State Secret.....like California's Budget? Or even MORE important. A Cosmic Hot Secret.

I'm upset that this info is not readily available.

My reason? Simple. I just bought a DACMagic+ which has frequency readout. The USB? Goes to 192k. PS3? 44.1 or I can force an upsample. The menu is detailed and a PIA. But the small dish? Blank....This implies a 32k sample rate.......
IF my DM+ is broken I'd like to know sooner than later...

thanks for reading my latest rant...............
