No more Fox channels?

[turbosat]

Other than 99W c-band, is there no longer any DVB-S Fox channels to watch? I admit I haven't kept up with the G18 programming lately, but today there doesn't seem to be any of them left, at one time I think there was 3 on 123. I can get C-band but the ku ones were really handy to have.

edit: I found the answer, looks like they all dropped off on the 13th of this month.

KUIL is still on 101w.

KUIL switched to something else a few weeks back, I think. MyTV or something independent.
Thanks though.

KUIL lost Fox back in January

The 3 Montana Fox stations were sold and Max Media took over on 7/13. The stations were to have left on 6/12 but they stayed up for a month for cable folks

just in time for NFL season
I guess i am left hoping the backhauls will be dvb-s2 this year, but i doubt it. Sucks for NFL / NFC fans.

Sorry. I never watch kuil. I confirmed it was still live but didn't confirm that it was fox.

That stinks. I was counting on kuil still being fox when the fall season started up. It really hurts because my fox local is too weak to come in at my location.

That stinks. This FTA business seems like a crap shoot. I was going to hook one up for my folks, but this seems way to technical for them.

The Fox networks (heck the Equity channels in general) we figured would leave at beginning of year when they filed bankruptcy.. the fact they wewre on for 6 months longer is a bonus

Yep, I guess I just got used to them being there, it was so nice to be able to go and watch a race or something on Fox Marquette or that mountain-feed Fox channel. Maybe they'll come back someday.

Yep, it was nice during football season to see a few different NFL games. Ku is mostly now about the feeds....
