How do you get channel 9 on foxtel Satellite? Thought it's only available on Foxtel Cable

I have 9 Digital & 9 Go on satellite in Melb.

Just don't get the "HD" channel; GEM. Nor TenHD & 7Mate.

Anyone know why Satellite subscribers don't get them?? Surely bandwidth can't be an issue, as they're nowhere near the HD quality of Foxtel anyway..

I guess 7, 9 and 10 just haven't decided to put their HD channels on the satellite.

I can't imagine Nine's ownership of the Adelaide station would change things. Not even Seven and Ten bother with Adelaide and Perth.

Ralfi, it costs the networks millions to have their channels on satellite for Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane subscribers. Space on the Optus C1/D3 satellie is scarce and expensive. The networks won't bother putting their channels up there unless the cost is justified with enough population and subscribers.

That's true for satellite subscribers (which is most of us). Those on cable get them PLUS the HD channels.
