Conus Transponders

[JohnL]

How many of DirecTV's transponders at 101 are Conus Transponders?

DirecTV is likely to discontinue SD service (in 2019 or earlier), so I was wondering how many HD Channels DirecTV could carry on the Conus Transponders from 101 if they decided to mirror HD channels from 101 for Tailgaters, RV and Boaters whom don't have antennas capable of receiving KA-Band.

It's also not SD programming that looks to be discontinued by 2019. But the MPEG-2 based compression format DSS, which is only used for SD programs currently.

There should still be SD programming, but all in MPEG-4 format.
