Has anyone compared the *tentative* Free DBS Network *proposed* channel list with some black screen "channels" that popped up on SES1 101w?

what the heck are you talking about?
freedbs is a pipe dream as posted the last time someone brought them up

Yeah, what blank channels on 101w? I just scanned it (Ku only) and I don't see anything that isn't normally there.

Are you talking about the $ scrambled programs such as Fox news?

I get several black screens that don't appear with the $ sign, and I don't remember seeing them there before... all on 12020 H 29993.

Lyngsat is your friend..... These are the Hotel Network private network feeds that have been on this transponder for at least 12+ years. Typically a few of the channels have been unencrypted on this MUX. One of the channel's programming went away last month, leaving only a black screen and no audio.
