This is an e-mail I just recieved from a friend
Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 14:22:16 -0500 Subject: 3ABN NEWSFLASH - PLEASE READ AND FORWARD TO EVERYONE YOU CAN! JUST RELEASED FOR ANNOUNCEMENT BY 3ABN DIRECTOR OF BROADCASTING, MOSES PRIMO: "After a satellite technical problem was resolved, Sky Angel decided NOT to restore the 3ABN channel on their package of channels. We encourage everyone to let Sky Angel know that you want 3ABN back on. They are not even answering the 888 number, but if you call 239-403-9130 and wait for the operator, you may voice your opinion or you may write to the following address: Sky Angel, PO Box 7609, Naples, FL 34101 or e-mail to: webmaster@skyangel.com by Moses 4/19/06 " Not sure exactly what's going on... but it is rather interesting

QUOTE Sky Angel does not have a channel available for 3ABN at this time. Please join us in prayer that this problem is resolved soon and 3ABN channel may be restored to the package of TV channels. PaperTigers, 3ABN does not have any such statement on their website. If this email is genuine I guess we will soon see something on the website.But based on the above quote which i just took from the 3ABN ws it is clear 3ABN has been booted. Obviously it is a technical "issue" but not a technical "difficulty." 3ABN has been dropped! Period!! kicked...sacked...given the boot...thrown out...

Several of us who had to deal with Skyangel administration while at 3ABN have long expected that 3ABN's days on Skyangel were numbered, and that the number was rapidly dwindling. However, until Skyangel says that 3ABN is off for good, there is always a chance it will be back.

Yup, I am having a problem now too. I can't even go to the website. It won't go. My husband said it's probably due to all the traffic. There's probably so many people trying to get on as well.

With me, when I type in www.3abn.org, it doesn't even go there, it goes to AOL Search results for 3abn. Strange.

I live in the state of Missouri---all evening I have been trying to get the website----I can get the home page--barely, but none of the links will come through. I have been trying for over an hour. We thought that maybe they were working on the website, and I keep getting the fact that the page is unavailable. Anybody gotten it yet? It is now 10:02 on Friday Night CST. |
