SES Americom announced Aug. 21 that Comcast, Bresnan Communications, Brighthouse Networks, and Metrocast are among the first U.S.-based cable multiple system operators (MSO) to participate in a triple-feed antenna program that offers access to the next generation of high-definition (HD) TV channels.

By installing a triple-feed antenna produced and delivered by Patriot Antenna Systems, the MSOs will be able to receive programming over three SES Americom satellites.
