Disappearing and reappearing channels on Sirrus XM

[dvferyance]

A couple of months ago 2 new channels appeared on my Sirius radio channels 207 and 209. One is a basketball channel the other a baseball channel. However after 2 weeks they were gone. But then just a couple weeks ago the appeared again only have them disappeared a couple weeks later. What's going on here?

Might those have been temporary overflow channels when they had conflicts with games?

I believe Roadrunner is right.  I believe they used those particular channels for college football during its season.

207 and 209 are NBA Radio and MLB Network Radio, respectively, on Sirius radios. (XM radios would have these on 86 and 89.) I'm wondering if SiriusXM might finally be harmonizing these channels so they can have the same channel numbers on both types of radios, considering Sirius has all of its other sports channels in the 80s.
