DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 6/12/2024

[Tom Speer]

It does make sense to keep D9S hanging around for a while if they can, rather than throwing the satellite away before absolutely necessary. I think that is why they are keeping D8 at 119 also.

I can't remember D9S's transponder plan but knowing how Directv did things I'm guessing it was designed to be capable of standing in for D7S at 119?

If so maybe they could swap it with D8? They'd still have to shut down some of the MPEG2 markets at 119 but they'd be able to prevent Dish from using those transponders.
