well that was quick. I thought they didnt have enough money?

Wow, I wonder what happened to change their plans so quickly? Either way, it will be nice to have them co-located.

Nice that all the Adventist channels are planning to be on the same satellite. Been wondering tho, why are they changing? Why not wait and remain at the same location on the SES1 replacement satellite, which I read will be a seamless replacement?

SES1 will not have the same coverage/ I believe the cut off line is just south of the
U.S. border
