I know back in April 2013 this came up about Luken feeds possibly leaving well now its pretty much confirmed...they are leaving at the end of the month
Original thread from April

Word was it was suppose to be shut off on 1/10

But I guess they waited for some affiliates to set up C-Band
Then we heard rumblings of the end of month...now confirmed from an owner of a low powered station

This has nothing to do with the C-Band feeds...only the KU feeds on 83W. So if you are KU only get the viewing of the channels while you can

An affiliate tipped us off: Luken Communications on 1/9 at 2PM ET sent all affiliates of their networks a short email that said as of today (1/10) their satellite Ku feed (they’ve had a combo feed of both the Ku and C band) of TuffTV, RetroTV and PBJ TV will cease and they will only be able to get them on the C-band.

I just found out that Luken Communiations (parent company for RTV, PBJ, and Tuff TV) will be pulling the satellite feeds I receive at the end of this month. I’m sorry for the short notice but I did not hear anything from the network until just today. It would require a rather large investment to continue to receive their programming and these are funds that I do not have.
