At work, we just received notification from Showtime that Galaxy 18 will take over on June 3... at least for their services. Says it's scheduled for 530am for transponder 14(Westplex2) and 545am for transponder 5(Westplex1).

It sounds like they will be doing Ku services first and then Cband services. The switch will be to Galaxy 17, not Galaxy 18. It will probably take a couple of months for Galaxy 18 to be tested and moved into position. Then there will be another switch from Galaxy 17 to Galaxy 18.

I too was a little taken with the post topic. Hopefully RetroJams will have a stronger signal (or antenna positioned better for my location) as I have been having a terrible time locking it's signal lately. Its been a little cloudy and rainy, but WNGS keeps coming in strong.
Good luck to all the folks at RTN and here's hoping for a smooth, painless transition along with a little stronger signal.
