Just checked in Tassie and it’s in on the 7 Network channels.
6, 60, 61 - 7 Tasmania (and HD)
62 - 7two
63 - 7mate
64 - SBN
67 - gecko
68 - RACING.COM
The 10 stations are still the same as they were (10, 10Peach, 10Bold and 10Shake)
Still no Sky News Regional anywhere in Tas.

Interesting. I wonder if Darwin and Spencer Gulf have also been graced with Gecko today?

Can confirm Gecko has replaced TVSN on Ch 57 in Spencer Gulf SA.

Surprised! It’s obvious that as part of the affiliation agreement between Seven and SCA, Seven has not allowed SCA to carry Sky News on its sub-channels.

I wonder if 7 might have something to say about gecko popping up on their affiliated multiplex?
This thread is wild 
At least I know I can now get my Gecko fix when travelling regionally

Sometimes when i am channel surfing, and i see that The Fine Art Auction is on gecko, i stop, and leave it on as background. Despite having little interest in art. I don’t do that with other shopping channels. I thank this forum for that. lol.

So Tasmania gets SBN, gecko and RDC, but no 7Flix or 7Bravo?
Assuming WIN will not allow gecko and SBN on the TDT mux?
They don’t need Sky News Regional, nor does anyone else, no loss there.

Yep. None of those. I just wondered if it was a way that SCA gets 100% of the income rather than only 50% with gecko and SBN and they literallly have to do kothing but provide a bit of bandwidth.

The Gecko EPG in Canberra, is not working today and was not working yesterday as well. That is because the EPG is frozen on 1 July’s The Fine Art Auction.
I have it working normally in Sydney via Ten. Probably a Southern Cross issue seeing it started on 1 July in those markets.
Fetch doesn’t show it either, but that is nothing new for Fetch.
The Gecko EPG is back in Canberra since yesterday.
