Did it go off or not?

No they are still on air.

Out of interest I had a look at their website (http://ww6.tvp.pl/2645.dzialy) and used an online Polish to English translator. It translates as follows:

Management has made a decision in care about our spectators about extension (prolongation) about one polish television month, for 31 october 2005 year, polonia in analog system from satellite emission of signal TV 1 Hot Bird.

So I presume from that pig English it's saying that they've decided on a one month delay in turning off the Hotbird Analogue signal. So off on the 31st of October.

A Polish lady that I know has been watching this service for sometime and I can confirm from what she saw on the channel that it will close at the end of October.

So - will tonight be the last night for Polonia? Will fire up the Hotbird rx later tonight and see if it disappears.

Dont you just love onlinne translators?

Are we soon going to get more channels from TVP? They sent out a PR a couple of months back saying they'd be more on Astra but we're well beyond that date now.
