I would love to get full Bell coverage down here in South Florida!
I know, wishful thinking. |
Telesat owns the satellite. They leased it to Bell, who then leased it to DishNetwork. Currently DishNetwork has the lease of 16 transponders, and DirecTV has the lease of 16 transponders on their own satellite there. I doubt you'll see it used at all for Bell TV.

Which is good for me. The receivers never handled having these channels on multiple satellites. |
Correct. They moved them on the 118.7 sat, so folks that only had them coming from 118.7 that were not upgraded yet will call in and say "Where's my locals!?" They will setup an upgrade and tell them where to tune to get their locals temporarily. They will not be there long.
