HD/SD Channel List?

My old satellite boss said the same thing if it doesn't have Fox news I am not interested. I would like to see go on and get better. I just like the fact you can use are fta equipment are switches, lnbs.

I was thinking the lack of Disney, Fox, and NBCUniversal channels on Orby is related to those companies running sports channels that they would probably demand be included in the lineup.

This and the flex pack have a lot of overlap, so I think we see which companies are "easy to work with".

Well, they had to start somewhere, and probably made deals with the easiest & cheapest companies to deal with. IF it takes off, nothing stops them from adding to their programming choices, or offering additional tiers.

Soon, Fox (what is left of it) will only have one sports channel left, after the Disney deal goes through.

From what I've read, Fox will keep Fox Sports 1, Fox Sports 2, Fox Deportes, and majority control of the Big Ten Network once the Disney sale closes.

A little birdie tells me they are talks with Fox.

Correct, I think it is the RSN's they are divesting.

Once the PQ question is answered, the next logical step would be to dig into the AQ. That's something that any self-respecting AVR should report in its display. In addition to that, whether the OTA stuff comes through in full audio glory (or converted to stereo) would be good to know for completeness. I was recently disappointed to find that an OTA tuner that I thought I wanted (Hauppauge QuadHD) only offered stereo sound.

Good point. DD 5.1 would be a requirement for me.

Maybe they’ll lease some more transponders on Eutelsat 117 and decide to go HD if they’re able to add Fox and a few more and it takes off

Looks like they have everything packed into TP 12 and 14 Vertical.

Eutelsat 117 West A at 116.8°W - LyngSat
