110/119 Listings Post 129 Transition (Updated 7/6/2025)

I went through the satellite/transponder listings and updated it through today, 7/6/2025. Once again, very few things that have changed over the last couple of months.

OH NO. This is upsetting. The screen says Merit TV has filed for bankruptcy.

Yeah - if I remember correctly, it was removed from DirecTV last week when the filed for bankruptcy and sued Trinity Broadcasting? I was surprised it wasn't removed earlier. The EPG was changed to Dr. Phil True Crime and Dr. Phil Primetime 24 hours a day the past couple of days.

Wow! A lot of changes on Western Arc. Very strange to have all of these changes at once after almost 2 years of minimal movement. As I am looking at the changes, Dish cleaned up 110, TP 21, which was a free for all with a mixture of SD, HD, and music channels. They moved all their SD channels off this transponder and put them with other SD channels. There were then 5 HD channels that moved from transponders that were already maxed out to 110, TP 21. With Merit Street Media dropping the Dr. Phil channel (currently just a static slate), that means there are in essence 6 slots available for HD channels that weren't there previously.

For those of you interested, here are the changes:
