The end of SD service on DIRECTV

According to the transponder maps over at DBSTalk they're still showing that DIRECTV5 at 110 is still being used, but for providing HD channels to Puerto Rico.
Actually 110W provides only MPEG-2 "SD" channels to Puerto Rico. Along with System Info., control, authorization, and guide data to the island.

Sort of like a 101W version for PR since PR can't receive the 101W satellites.

All HD channels and MPEG-4 SD channels for PR come satellites at 99 and 103W.

So all PR subs. use Slimline-5 dishes, but only use the 110, 99, and 103W LNBs on them. The 101 and 119w LNBs are unused.

Where does their guide data come from if not 101 or 119?
