No, they are not available as Super Stations anywhere else, and probably never will be. * XETV HD CW affiliate in San Diego was uplinked to channel 6411 at 110°. It is not yet available to subscribers. * ION TV (Ch.181) is now mirrored to channel 280. The guess is that since ION is actually a broadcast network, the channel is being moved to the same range as other broadcast networks. * WXAX Azteca is now available to local Tampa subscribers on channel 8704 and 26 at 110° and 61.5° for Easter Arc subscribers. * File this one under "Huh???": o Abilene, TX local channels are now duplicated on transponder 1 at 129°.

Anyone without an MP4 capable HD receiver can no longer receive HBO or Showtime HD. HBO and Showtime HD are still in MPEG2, however there is a flag on the channels that prevent the old MP2 HD receivers from receiving them. This is part of the transition to MP4. * Sun TV (610), K TV (667/6161) and TEMPM (6199) have been removed from 61.5°. For some reason SunTV remains on channel 6160 at this time.
SAB now a part of Sony Entertainment Television (SET) has been re-launched with a refreshing new look and feel.
In its new avatar SAB will move from being a comedy-centric channel to a general entertainment channel.
Targeting the 25-45 years age group will broaden our horizon. Our aim is to provide an optimistic view of the ordinary man's everyday life. Through our new bouquet of mass variety content we will offer our viewers a source of relaxation and a refreshing break from the mundane.
We are marking the new beginning with the launch of a primetime show called 'Lo Kal-lo Baat'.
However, popular shows such as Yes Boss, Chupke Chupke, Wah Wah!!! and Aaj Ke Shrimaan Shrimati will continue to entertain our loyal audiences.
SAB will not only broad base the offerings from SET but also bring in new audiences into the network.
SAB TV is part of the SET -Discovery's One Alliance bouquet comprising channels such as MTV, Nick, Animax, Discovery Travel & Living, and NDTV.
