Your channel switch is being advertised on XM as part of the highlighted Sports listings of the day. Another feather for the fedora that XM has you on the basic platform hopefully there's a few more sheckles for the effort.

Steve, can we make channel 243's motto "All Byk, all the time" LOL :D

I'll 2nd that. Means you should gain a number of listeners from it too, which should add more sheckles for you!

Thought the 24/7 deal was starting 9/5 but not hearing it and no news that I've seen. What's up with that Steve?

The announcement from Dave Johnson about the 24/7 startup was premature. As I mentioned here last week, from what I was told by Sirius management, there are negotiations going on to finalize a deal for an additional race broadcast feed, but they have not been finalized.

In advance of that, "At the Races" was moved from 'Best of Sirius' XM Ch. 104 to XM Ch. 243 where all standard XM subscribers can reach it, and "Down the Stretch" (Saturdays 10a-12n) was moved to Sirius 126 so that all the current race related broadcasting is in the same place.
