Good news! The only thing that really caught my eye was "added new delivery methods". Does that mean they're looking into and/or using wired distribution?

Some affiliates that were previously getting custom satellite feeds are now being fed on the Internet.

Great News! I hope they stay available fta for a long time to come.

Glad to hear it! Did not appear things would go that way.

I guess Luken sold a golf course or a yacht to pay his bills?
Well, good news at least. I would hate to lose the channels. We’ve lost soooooooo much FTA over the past 5 years.

Would be nice to see it back on KU satellite again.

Yep on Ku band too even though we got on ota in Albuquerque's TV market KYNM-LD rf ch. 51. I preferred Ku band for better bitrate picture quality.

Agreed.

Glad things are working out. I just started watching retroTV again after quite a time off.

I setup a 6' dish, fixed on 87W 2 weeks ago and have had no trouble receiving the Luken channels at all with it. Until then, I had been moving the 10' over to it to watch MST3K on Saturday evenings.

I am glad to hear that. I am trying to get a used 6ft dish so that I can point it to SES-2, as well. Many posters have planted doubts in my head over whether a 6ft dish is large enough to get SES-2. My yard is not big enough for a 10ft dish or even an 8ft dish.

I'd be interested in knowing which type of 6ft dish you have--mesh or solid--and which model. Also, which lnb are you using on it.
