74w remnants?

I've heard 85 west had a lot of hidden channels but no one will give me a straight answer. The fridge site seems to think it does.

It would seem odd that any working sat would have nothing or very little on it.

There used to be hidden channels on AMC 16 when Echostar VIP TV was active, but they ended that service and there are no hidden channels there now.
Both AMC 16 and AMC 15 have solar array problems and some transponders have been turned off on both satellites.

105W
93W

105W has kinda gone away as the "feeds satellite"
When Dish turned off locals there and started subleasing it feeds would fill up on there...not so much now
