Movies! subchannel to replace Fox 10 SD simulcast on ch 45 next week?

Although many have thought that Fox would add Movies! to the KSAZ channel 10 broadcast stream as channel 10.3, it appears to be going on the KUTP channel 45 stream instead. Fox has changed the virtual channel for Bounce TV from 45.2 to 45.3, and channel 45.2 is unused. However, My Network TV still occupies Program 3 in the broadcast stream as channel 45.1, Fox10 SD simulcast still occupies Program 4 as channel 10.2, and Bounce TV still occupies Program 5, but now as channel 45.3. Will the Fox 10 SD simulcast be going away when Movies! debuts, reportedly on Memorial Day, May 27th?
 
Movies! is all set to air in Los Angeles on KCOP 13.3, also a MYNet Station, so it looks like this new DigiNetwork will NOT air on FOX net stations.
 
Channel 45.2 is now on the air, currently a simulcast of channel 45.3, Bounce TV. The short description, however, reads "Movies!", while the long description reads "Movies! Channel Coming Soon".

I also noticed both Bounces had some lip-sync issues yesterday. I haven't checked it this morning, so I don't know if the engineers got on that issue.
 
Movies! is now running a promo loop - some pretty good movies in the library. I just hope the network isn't like some movies, where the only good parts appear in the trailer.
 
I checked in on 45.2 several times yesterday and saw the movie loop. Looks like they begin programming Monday. TitanTV doesn't have listings yet but does show that Movies! is "coming soon".

I'm glad Fox kept their SD signal on 10.2 because there are many times their primary signal pixelates quite badly. I've noticed signal problems this week on 3.1 and 3.2 as well.
