Canal 50 on Hispasat

On Friday night - late, about 2am, they appear to have a programme dedicated to pole dancing.

Worth recording

Last night I came across a hilarious show on a Hungarian channel on Viasat3, 5E at 12380H 27500, called Naked and Funny. It was on around 8-9 p.m. Cyprus time. Basically it was a naughty version of candid camera Excellent

Just done a complete blind scan of the Hotbirds and this channel came up as Channel 24 of the list using my Manhattan Plaza ST100.

What an odd but entrertaining channel it is too. It seems to be a low-budget station from Senegal on the west coast of Africa. The picture is okay and the sound is fine so no complaints there!

I have a pretty wide musical taste and this channel seems to split its airtime between african and rap styles of music, football (soccer) and rather entertaining fistycuff/wrestling matches.

Well, it's kept me entertained this evening! No repeats so far either.

The channel can be found Free To Air on Hotbird (13 East)

Aye, I realised this later on - --after my post....*but* I don't think anyone had given it a description so I don't think I wasted my time (this time!!)

I've still got it on. Can't speak French (that's what language people speak in Senegal I think.) but enjoying it just the same.

Try 15 west Telestar, there is The History Channel, National Geography two channels, National Geography Wild, and five other Zone Club and Zone Reality.

All these channels are in English and are NOT FTA (sorry my mistake)
They are on 11.150V, 19275, and 11.124H, 18386.

VH1 FTA on Hispasat 30° West
permalink
I am currently receiving VH1 FTA (Free to air) on my Lidl Silvercrest/Comag Sl 65 Receiver on an 80cms Dish (also Lidl) here in south west Ireland.

Details:

Satellite: Hispasat 1D at 30.0°W; European Beam
  • Channel Name: VH1
  • Freq: 11577
  • Symbol Rate: 27492
  • Polarity: V
  • Video PID: 4704
  • Audio PID: 4705
  • PCR: 4704
  • Text: 8191
  • Sub: 8191
  • Version: 1084h - C65GB

It is part of the TV Cabo bouquet but is showing Clear FTA.

It is a different VH1 from that which shown on the sky digital platform as 28° East. However it seems to be all English with less adverts!

Sci Fi and Sci Fi +1 are FTA on 28.2E, also Hallmark +1 is also FTA on the same place. I don't know how long it is going to last.

The station name in list is 5110 and some other number. Check lyngsat for tps info.

Yes, there will be a multitude of channels, just check on Lyngsat.

On Nilesat for example, there are the MBC channels on 11938V, Dubai One on 11785V, and City 7 TV on 11862V.
Plus loads channels with Arabic language.

I cant check it right now, but I think it might be Canis Fish TV,

Now you know whether or not you want a fish tank in your living room.
