376 on DirecTV Coverage begins at 8:45 PM CDT; first launch opportunity at 10:46, second at 11:28. Both are instantaneous launch windows -- any delay will scrub the launch for the evening.
It's also the first launch of the Delta II 7925 Heavy (7 - extended first stage, 9 - nine strap ons 2 - Aerojet second stage, 5 - PAM-D third stage). The 'Heavy' designation is because the nine strap-on boosters (6 light up at liftoff, three at altitude (the air started nozzles are bigger)) are from the bigger Delta III vehicle.
On DISH Network, NASA TV is at channel 213.
