KPPX adds new subchannel; removes two

KPPX has added a new in-the-clear subchannel, 51.4, and has reshuffled the encrypted Airbox channels, removing two.

Ion Life is now airing on 51.3 and 51.4, but the new subchannel will eventually become a shopping channel called I-Shop, returning to Bud Paxson's roots.

Airbox now consists of the Airbox barker channel, Starz movie channel, Gran Cinema movie channel (Spanish), NFL Network, Red Zone and Gol TV. Gone are Spanish-language channels TeleFormula, CineMex and Pasiones. Too bad none of them are available to the public - they've only been sending out the signals since Thanksgiving. 2011.
 
I don't see it ever happening. Ion doesn't even have a station in Tucson, and its low viewership doesn't make it worth the cost of starting up a translator.

The only reason why you see KUTP translators on chs. 14 (Prescott) and 16 (Prescott/Verde Valleys) is because the Phoenix Suns games used to air on KUTP, and with them being owned and operated by Fox, you'll not see another station on them, unless you suddenly have an explosion of Spanish-speaking people and the stations switch to MundoFox.
