Programming changes

I have been on cable/satellite TV for two reasons for the last decade and a half.  SoapNet was very valuable to me and I absolutely lived for the NASA TV programming.  Upon moving to my current location in Arkansas I went onto Cox...which offered me Soapnet until last Dec. 30.  My heart was broken when I learned that Cox did not carry NASA TV.  I contacted the head offices in reference to the programming.  After all NASA offered it to everyone free of charge.  I would have left Cox for that one reason alone, but my internet was set up in my package.  I'm also now trying a landline...which I love.  My questions are 1. Now that disney pulled the plug on soapnet what programming do you  plan to replace it with.   More urgently, I have discovered that NASA TV  is now being offered.  Upon checking I was told I would need the variety pack to get it $10.00 a month.  It is supposed to be on channel 107.  I've been paying for variety pack for several years. My channels skip from 106-110. What do I have to do to get NASA TV.  I'm disabled and on a fixed income...and you are nicklel and diming me to death   I want my NASA TV or maybe I'm due a refund for several years. You have no idea the pain I endured by not being able to follow the last shuttle flights.

What area do you line in? Its quite possible you just need to reset your box to download the new channel info, but I want to double check the channel lineup in your area. 

As for a refund, could you state your reasoning? What are you asking the refund for?

I check the channel listings at http://ww2.cox.com/residential/tv/channel-lineup.cox for your area and I show NASA as channel 107 requiring the Bonus Pak.  No plans have been announced for the channel space vacated by Soapnet at this time.

What does one have to do to get Cox to add NASA in the San Diego area, too? Our 107 in the Bonus Pak is not being used. Better yet, put it in ClearQAM.

Hi Picky and Domino,

I, too, watch NASA at http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/index.html, as well as through the awesome NASA TV app. I love the "On Demand" section of the NASA TV app!

I think you have a fantastic idea, Domino. I've submitted a channel request for you, verbatim et literatim!
