It is all still there (and more sometimes), just DVB-S and DVB-S2
digital in various formats including more and more HD...
The uplink trucks have gotten smaller and cheaper... and up to
six separate and distinct feeds fit on the transponder you saw only one on
in analog in the past so more rather than less can get transmitted...
Most stuff is Ku as the dishes on trucks are more practical in
that band...
Almost no analog left....
