FX to launch timeshift channel

FX has confirmed plans to launch a timeshift channel next month.

FX+, currently testing at 10.876V, will rebroadcast the main FX schedule on a two-hour delay.

The change from the norm - most timeshift channels operate on a one-hour delay - is to accomodate the channel's primetime schedule, which "revolves around two hour blocks of their flagship programming between 9pm and 11pm on weeknights".

FX+ launches on EPG 271 on Monday, September 12.
