I know that there isn't much analog left, but there's more than that. I just did a quick surf of channels, and found 5 analog KU channels, and on the weekends when there are sporting events, you'd find even more. The thing about analog KU though is that it's all occasional video stuff, different places each time, so you're never quite sure where to look for it. However SBS6, and AMC5 and a couple other sats in that general area often have analog. Not much, and will be getting even less, but it's still nice to have analog capability.

BTW, 2 of the analog signals I just ran across were of some incredible maze cut into some vegetation of some sort. One feed was an air view, and the other a view from the ground. Don't have a clue what it was. Other feeds were a couple reporters somewhere near a house, a classroom feed, and a couple slates. So actually 7 including the slates.
