Are Russian channels gone?

[jeff006]

There used to be four Russian channels on 148: ORT, HTB, RTVI, RTVI+. Since a couple of days ago, ORT and HTB have been showing "bad or scrambled signal" message. The other two channels still work fine. Does anybody know what happened to ORT and HTB? Does anybody still get them?

All gone to N2 sorry

On lyngsat.com those channels are still listed as "Nagravision 1 Nagravision 2". Is the information there not well updated?

[jeff006]

I am guessing lyngsat is not up to date. Well, now that all Russian channels are gone, does anybody know if any Russian channels are accessible through a true FTA from the West Coast?

All the ethnic channels like Korean, Chinese, & Greek are gone....for good to N2 from the West Coast.
