I am in South Africa, using a Dreambox, I get each and every other channel, all at 100 % , but not these ones in particular ... I have given up!

Hi Mashter. From South Africa, and since they stopped showing MSNBC on BTV, I am also trying to get MSNBC off Telstar 12. Can I ask what size dish you have?

Many thanks!

By twist of fate, I am also able to receive MSNBC, and some DAD's, but the picture is so choppy that it's not worth it! It's like there's rain fade...

I am using 90cm Dish is there anything I can do?

I sort of knew that but was in denial ... Won't invest in a big dish until I know for sure that they will stay there forever.

Thanks though for that kick back to reality!

Nothing is guaranteed in the world of satellite. Make a decision and hope it pays off for you - the channels could stay there for ages or disappear 2 days after you buy the dish.

For the past week, I have not been able to record my favourite shows! I thought it had something to do with Daylight Saving! Then I noticed that the talk shows were actually running, but the times have changed! For instance "Conan's Show" was playing during "Jimmy Fallon's" time slot

I have since tried running all my recordings later, but the recording come out blank!

I have also noticed that Dad Fiber 4 TX 11 cannot be detected by my dreambox. MSNBC and another DAD are still there anyway!

I think they have gone back to BISS for the main feed. Can anybody confirm if they are using the old key or a new one?

I do not think so (about BISS) as I get on 11518 3744 H 7/8 CNBC-US (DAD-4) the last couple of days. NO NBC whatsoever on any of the 4 NBC feed frequencies. On 11532 3198 H 7/8 there is still MSNBC.

Jay Leno feeds (and partly O'Brien - still) are on 9E, 11727 V 27500 as Arqiva EB9 OU 1, average quality.
On that frequency, sometimes one gets also NBC Primetime shows but I wouldn't rely on this at the moment. On the same frequency one gets ESPN America with constantCW (Cryptoworks), for those with Dreambox.

As already known, the thing with Leno will change after the Winter Olympics as it will run again at 11:30 p.m., Conan is leaving but I have no info (of course) on feeds then.

Has anybody found any other NBC/CBS/ABC/Fox/CNN-US feeds in Europe in the last couple of weeks?

Regards,

Pavana
