Doc,

Too kind! It was a nice, nice day Friday at the Great Multi-Race Wagering Place.

I only got word of the switch throw on the TVG audio while on the air Thursday... Knew it was coming but didn't know when. Talk of it had actually died down, so a lot of us thought there was a hitch. Should be fun for anyone preferring to hear anything about racing, and really demonstrates SiriusXM's commitment to the game.

Steve,
Now get them to put 126 on the Internet line-up. Great work by the way!

From now on when I am at work doing graveyard shift I can listen to channel 126 when there is nothing else to listen to. I might actually keep my Sirius even though they are ticking me off.

Not too happy that the TVG replay has now taken over the 7-10am slot. Who really wants to listen to race replays from the previous night while driving to work? A replay of ATR seems perfect for the 7-10am slot so that people could listen to ATR on their way to and from work.

TF,

Thx... Some things to work out with the new programming... A number of people already voicing their displeasure. Am working on it.

You don't like Mountaineer replays? It's a no brainer, 7-10 slot is best for ATR replay. and why does Byk always have to do all the work?
