DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 6/3/2026

[doctor J]

Weekly Analysis for 5/13/2026:

 

[KyL416]

Besides the FanDuel alt purge and PX going live, prep for another TPN swap

 

[KyL416]

The Pistons will be on WMYD/20 next season.

There might be a game only feed in the 600s for the other markets since Flint, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Marquette, Toledo and Traverse City will likely be subchannel only. Alpena, whose locals are not carried, won't have any OTA clearance as their lone commercial station WBKB has the Big 4 on all of its subchannels, and none of those networks would agree to pre-emptions 3-5 nights a week during the entire season.

 

[KyL416]

The 900s will return for the Women's U.S. Open Golf between 6/4-6/7 and Men's U.S. Open Golf between 6/18-6/21. There will also be 4K coverage of the Featured Groups on channel 105 both weekends.

Weekly Analysis for 5/20/2026:

 

[KyL416]

The Morgan Murphy channels returned on Friday

Some other TPN swaps

 

[TheRatPatrol]

The Pistons will be on WMYD/20 next season.

There might be a game only feed in the 600s for the other markets since Flint, Grand Rapids, Lansing, Marquette, Toledo and Traverse City will likely be subchannel only. Alpena, whose locals are not carried, won't have any OTA clearance as their lone commercial station WBKB has the Big 4 on all of its subchannels, and none of those networks would agree to pre-emptions 3-5 nights a week during the entire season.

I guess this is one issue if it's OTA only.

Are they offering a streaming option as well?

 

[KyL416]

Yeah, they're going to offer a D2C subscription like all of the other teams do. In Scripps case they already have a deal with Viewlift for the Golden Knights, Lightning and Panthers, who also powers the apps for CHSN, SpaceCity SN, Altitude, Monumental, NESN and the Versant networks. So they'll likely handle the apps for the Predators and Pistons next season, and anyone else that might strike a deal with Scripps.

Kiswe handles the SEG+ app for the Mammoth (who airs on Scripps's KUPX) and Jazz (who airs on Sinclair's KJZZ) as their broadcasts are produced in house by the teams' owner. Kiswe also has a deal with Gray for the Pelicans, Suns and Portland Fire, and the apps for PPV.com, Joe Hand and AEW.

They corrected the TMSID for 324 In Touch+ to point to schedule for its broadcast feed instead of its FAST feed

KyL416, while there is normal prog on CNNI 358, the (sat) guide just says SIGN OFF for at least the next several days...is something going to happen to it?
Also, why haven't all those FanDuel RSN's been removed from the guide yet?

 

[KyL416]

Because they are still on the air with episode specific programming scheduled until at least 6/13, including a live darts tournament this weekend. This past weekend they had the Eurobasketball League final live, which they have been airing as live afternoon filler for the season.

CNNI is likely a gracenote processing delay from the Memorial day weekend backlog
