The signal from a satellite that helps deliver American Forces Network programming in the Pacific continued to remain down Sunday, prompting the service to continue using an alternate broadcast schedule, according to the AFN Web site at www.myafn.net.
The failure, which happened at 8:10 a.m. Saturday, affected all AFN radio, television and cable networks, the network said. AFN officials switched to a secondary satellite, which required AFN stations to broadcast different shows from those previously scheduled.
As of Sunday evening, no estimate was available for when primary service would be restored, according to the Web site.
