For those early morning risers wanting to check out how their network stock options were doing on CCNfn this morning, the GE-3 satellite spun out of control for several hours beginning at 4am EST. This affected the Associated Press, PBS, several Turner networks. I suppose I should start collecting which Internet satellite providers are using which satellites for their feeds. GE doesn't have any information on their web page yet, but CNN and the Associated Press have stories. NetOps: most network operation centers use one or more Turner networks in their NOCs 24x7 for current information. -- Sean Donelan, Data Research Associates, Inc, St. Louis, MO Affiliation given for identification not representation
