LPB HD video Quality - Canadian TV, Computing and Home Theatre Forums

I've been thinking of trying to catch the LPB mux on SES 2 at 87w.
I'm hoping to record some of the PBS programming in better quality than what I currently get. I get WNPI OTA, but the HD subchannel is compressed to about 12 Mbps, because of the other 2 SD subchannels. I don't get reliable reception at 125W, but when I was able record some shows, the quality was visibly much better, and the bitrate was about 17Mbps.

Does anyone know the bitrate of the HD channel on the LPB Mux?
