PBS SD mux

[B.J.]

I think I picked the wrong day to try to peak my dishes. Yesterday, I was messing with things trying to get both dishes to get better reception on AMC21-Horizontal. When it got late, I gave up trying and decided to try today. Had everything looking at 12120H.
Well today tried again, and couldn't find it at all. Got everything out of kilter, then remembered that Feb 10th was the last day for the 12120 Mux.

Anyway, it looks like it's gone, just like the schedule said.

So is this gone for good?

If so, I'll really miss it!

[B.J.]

Yeah, should be gone for good.

The main schedules will be on the 4 HD channels. The only SD channels will be the 3 4444 SCPC feeds, and the mux with World, Create and VMe. Of course, there is always Montanna.

 

[Mr Tony]

yep. All the SD PBS channels are gone except for the subchannels (World, create, V-Me)

This just means that T21 will be used for the NRT file transfer system. Seems to me like testing will begin in a few months, which I'm quite curious on what equipment they'll use.

I think PBS Kids will be though the two HD channels. In the morning and afternoon, they show all kids programming. Wonder what that data service PID is.
