Anything in the weekly data and TPN Map that refers to channels on D10 103cb, should instead show D15 103cb on the same transponder and TID numbers. The switch occurred back on December 9, 2025. Gary and I are working on the necessary software changes now. Our data collection procedures have no way of distinguishing between two satellites at 103 degrees with transponders on the same frequency.

D10 has failed in such a way that DirecTV is asking permission to remove it from Geostationsry orbit and boost it to a disposal orbit ASAP. See this thread.
