What do you mean? HRTV feed has been running on SXM when ATR, HRRN or DTS aren't on.

This must be for initial sign up Sirius customers. I realize it is all supposed to be one organization XM/Sirius since the merger but do not find that to be the case as evidenced again by your post above. It could be a technical glitch which I seem to be cornering the market on lately but something is amiss here.

I've heard HRTV on 209, the problem for me is that on weekends after DTS it's just the "what's on sirius sports radio" ad infinitum that is played on at least 5 channels.

No HRTV feed on Sirius 93...

I've has Sirius for 5-6 years. I get switched over at 9am to espn crap.

Same here. At times the screen on my Sirius receiver does say HRTV, but it's definitely ESPN crap on the audio.

I emailed Sirius:

I am a Sirius subscriber. I understand that channel 93 Sports Play-By-Play is supposed to be carrying the feed from the Horse Racing televison channel HRTV. Unfortunately, while the display screen on my receiver says HRTV, the audio playing is still ESPN Chicago. Will this be fixed so the horse racing fans such as myself can enjoy this programming? Thank you for your attention.

And this was their response:

As some are saying, I'm getting the switch over to Chicago and NY espn feeds and Waddle and whatever and not these great horsey shows my ears want to hear. Not as you say.

Original Sirius people do not get this on 93. This programming is all available on your channel on the internet radio.

This is very odd...

I've been away now 10 days, but I'm sure the XM in my Buick and the Stiletto Sirius boombox in the house both had the HR feed over the holidays... I'll check with New York soon as I get a chance for exact schedule.

FYI this is what we get in Tampa on Sirius 93:

6:00 AM - 9:00 AM = Previous Day's ATR
9:00 AM - 10:00 AM = Live ATR
10:00 AM - 2PM - Waddles and Slappy (Chicago ESPN I believe)
2PM - 4PM - Lupica
4PM - 7PM sometimes HRRN (usually Thursday and Friday or just Friday) mostly Don LaGreca and Michael Kay

On Sunday I think they played HRTV's feed in between college basketball.

Dan, this is the schedule that has been in place since they first made the switch, and cut off the final 2 hours of Steve's show, however many years ago (for us Original Sirius radio subscribers).

It hasn't changed, save for a special program every now and again, or technical glitches. I personally haven't listened to more than 5 minutes of Werbles and Silvy over that period of time, but I digress.

Lupica is actually only on for ONE hour. He is so ANNOYING at times, perhaps it seems like 2 or more, and it is actually not even live anymore (not that that makes any difference). And don't get me started about Kay, that guy has been a douche ever since I first heard him on Fordham Universitys' WFUV too many years ago for me to admit.

Sorry, I lost the topic... Yes, we don't get any HRTV on Sirius channel 93.

Yes it is. I believe it was the NYDaily News who photo-shopped this beaut when it was reported he ran off to an Island vacation just after the season ended.

What's an "Original Sirius subscriber"? I've had a subscription since before Howard Stern but don't understand how the programming would be any different for someone purchasing a subscription today.
Does it have anything to do with the actual equipment? I had to replace the XM radio tuner module with a Sirius one to get it in my GMC maybe?

If you purchased Sirius (before the merger) you get the schedule you posted above on 93..
If you had XM before the merger or purchase the Sirius/XM product since the merger you get the full horse racing programming on #209. T

Yep. That's right.
