Dispute with LTV
"In July 2006, LTV pulled their service from the NOVA lineup, due to a dispute with Multichoice. In August 2006, Alfa TV was also removed from the NOVA line-up due to the same dispute." The channels then went on to sign with rival DTH provider Athina Sat. In 2008, the two sides resumed negotiations and were able to come to an agreement. As of March 3, 2008, both LTV and Alfa are now once again available through NOVA Cyprus Πολιτησ OnlineChannels
