To be clear, what's happening on Wednesday is that, after all this
time, the channel numbers will finally synchronize between the two
groups. The first time was the elimination of the similar channels (so
the XM and Sirius 80s channels became a single 80s channel). So
whereas First Wave was on XM 44 and Sirius 22, on Wednesday it moves
to channel 33 on both services.
