DIRECTV Transponder Map ~ Data 9/17/2025

Weekly Analysis for 9/17/2025:

 

[KyL416]

Prep for another TPN swap

NHL Center Ice prep

WSRE/23 Pensacola and KSMN/20 Worthington MN have been dropped. Neither station is blaming DTV, it looks like WSRE forgot to file their must carry statement, while KSMN never re-established their fiber link to the Sioux Falls receive facility

An INFO channel on 322.1 that's only visible to SD receivers about FETV's SD feed going away soon

New logos for the HBO and Cinemax rebrands

In the case of WSRE this might be one of the reasons- they're giving up their PBS Affiliation and it sounds like they're in trouble overall: Pensacola State cuts WSRE's PBS affiliation; Trustee questions president's DEI practices
