Comparison of Transponder Data for Jan 17 2024 vs Jan 10 2024:
No changes in system tables for any transponder tuning parameters.
Changes to the use of defined transponders:
5 Transponders cleared of all Streams::
Net 0 TID 19 Beam BB03 is a Spot Beam Transponder on D9S@101, TPN 20
On 01/10/24 this transponder serves DMA 140-Orlando, FL & 185-Tampa, FL
Net 0 TID 25 Beam RB25 is a Spot Beam Transponder on D9S@101, TPN 26
On 01/10/24 this transponder serves DMA 167-San Antonio, TX
Net 0 TID 25 Beam RB26 is a Spot Beam Transponder on D9S@101, TPN 26
On 01/10/24 this transponder serves DMA 165-Salt Lake City, UT
Net 0 TID 27 Beam BB03 is a Spot Beam Transponder on D9S@101, TPN 28
On 01/10/24 this transponder serves DMA 140-Orlando, FL
Net 15 TID 22 Beam NAT is a National Transponder on D12@103ca, TPN 23
Stream (PID) counts:
The PID count Excel workbook provides much more count detail.
Newly updated tables of Streams on each transponder are available in the DataDigesters TPN Grids
More details of changes in individual channels will follow in the Weekly Analysis
and Gary Toma's Domestic TPN Map Excel files
Lots of LIL shifts today

Thank you, Kyle for your summary of this massive change today. It is a lot of data changes. I'm still trying to get my head around it.
Here's where the MPEG-2/SD local removals stand right now:
Columbus OH, Indianapolis, Norfolk, Orlando, Salt Lake City, San Antonio, Tampa and Zanesville were removed this past week
Greensboro, Miami, Nashville, Philly, Portland OR, Raleigh, Richmond and Roanoke now have their final notices in multiple slots
Baltimore, Birmingham, Boston, Charlotte, Cleveland, Denver, Houston, Memphis, Paducah, Pittsburgh, Sacramento, Seattle and Washington DC have single notices
We also have confirmation via another thread that they started notifying people in Detroit about a month ago.
The remaining 101 markets without any confirmed notification so far are NYC, LA, Chicago, Dallas, San Francisco, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Phoenix, St. Louis and Greenville SC
(The only D9S/101 channels for Albuquerque are SigViewed from Denver, their in market SD locals are on 119)
Considering that they have no more than 14 MPEG-2/SD channels per transponder, with some slight shuffling they can fit NYC (16), LA (19), Chicago (17) and Dallas (16) after the 6 D9S spotbeam transponders switch to national beams via D16, and have enough wiggle room if additional MPEG-2/SD LILs ever need to be added to these markets because of future ownership/contract/affiliation/location changes. i.e. if their deals with TBN, Daystar, TCT and CTN ever lapse and they need to honor the must carry status of their O&Os. For convenience, they would also have room to move the 4 NYC and 5 LA DNS feeds to these transponders.

The INFO channels for the dropped TCT LILs have been removed
The remap of WTIU Bloomington has been dropped from the Lafayette IN market after Indy's MPEG-2 locals were removed, they still get PBS via the national feed on 65.
9751 P+SHOW (Paramount+ App info) and 9756 GIFT (League Pass on Us) are now live, along with updating the Showtime HD East record for Puerto Rico to P+ with Showtime
Some swaps/rebalancing between TPNs 15 & 22 of the 101 slot
Passing along Gracenote's reformatting of OTA labels in the notes field

Dallas, Detroit, Greenville SC, Phoenix, San Francisco and St. Louis now have INFO channels.
As of today, NYC (16), LA (19), Chicago (17), Atlanta (16) and Minneapolis (12) are the only remaining markets without INFO channels. With some shuffling, they will have enough room to keep all 5 of those markets on the 101 slot after D9S goes away.

In addition to the Cox remaps and the new SD LIL removal INFO channels
Phoenix now has CW via KAZT/7
Columbus MS's FOX and CW affiliates swapped networks
The main Showtime channels have been relabled to ParSHO
9758 GIFT (Center Ice On Us) is now live
Passing along some OTA updates from Gracenote

But will they keep all five? Wouldn't it make more sense to get rid of them all, except for the NYC/LA channels also used for DNS? Then they could add more HD channels to 101.
If they were going to keep SD markets beyond NYC and LA I guess Chicago as #3 in size might make sense, but Atlanta (#7) and especially Minneapolis (#15) would be strange to keep around if they have already booted out #4 Philly and have served notice on #5 Dallas.
