Wowow channel = ch 56
AXN was pulled out sometime over the weekend. It was originally at ch 30. Per their updated channel guide, no AXN, ESPN, Solar Sports or any of the Star channels yet.
The channel guide in Ch 3 or 4 is now fairly accurate so you can use it for reference.
I have a Philips TV. I don't automatically get new channels, unless they are placed in channels (and therefore, frequencies) I already have before. For example, I immediately got AXN because Ch 30 was already occupied by the Profit Watch channel. Same thing with ETTV on Ch 18 (before it got transferred to Ch 58). On the other hand, I had to manually search for Wowow and BS1, because they were placed in channels I didn't have before (initially at ch 89 and 90). But I don't think this is common to all TVs. Kasi my old Panasonic automatically recognized all new channels. Ewan ko nga ba.
