[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1062983, member: 330868"] Just out of interest, I’ve been looking online for information about what was about in the skies above Europe in the mid 80s, before satellite became more popular with Astra 1A and other DBS systems at the end of the decade and into the 90s. I stumbled upon this interesting scan of a Swedish document from 1985, which on pages 27-28 lists the channels carried by the original Eutelsat bird at 13°E in that year, launched in 1984 (ECS1/Eutelsat I-F1) - [URL]http://www.teldok.net/pdf/Teldok-info3.pdf[/URL] The text is copiable so can be translated with Google translate. Obviously at that time the channels were intended for reception by cable companies, shared across 10 transponders - Sky Channel Music Box (precursor to Super Channel) 3Sat TV5 SAT.1 ATN/FilmNet World Public News RTL-Plus Teleclub Europa TV RAI Uno New World Channel Worldnet [/QUOTE]
