I'm not sure about US scheduling but thought it was mostly being shown
timeshifted in the evening?

Oh and it's 24 channels of content with them also simulcasted in HD.

All free to air and in the clear.

Here's the schedule for 9am tomorrow with a more info box for channels 1-15

Here for 16-24 + a couple of the simulcast HD channels.
