Thread: N. American Spanish sub package?

I already installed Azteca for her neighbor a few day's ago but she wants a sub package. If she can't get a sub package, I'll talk her into Azteca/Televisa fta but at least I told her I would check tonight.

PS: There is no line of site for 30.0°W Hispasat 1C 1D

KTEL on 79W always has a strong signal; I think it is a Telemundo station, a lot of racy game shows and soap opera's all in Spanish.

For Mid-West the only small (small dish) soluton is Dish Network &/or DirecTV all other providers (Sky Mexico, etc.) will require if any chance 6 ft. off set fed antena first to run tests if by any chance. 1.8 m (6 ft.) is the best reference I have used for all my set ups, you can aim and adjust and try reading the dB in a spectrum analyzer to see if by any chance you get something and then calculate the size you will need to get decent readings......expensive test / task.

There might be some spillover:



The beam looks more like a zone beam than a spot beam.....

I checked with Globecast and they do not offer any Spanish language packages that I could find. Found on Galaxy 28 a sub package "
RedIntercable

" but I don't know if it can be sub'd here or not.

Red Intercable: is just like HITS only that it's owned by Intercable, which is a cable company all arround South America, so they feed their headends by areas with that feed you found on Galaxy 28, also the beam is a zone beam aimed only at South America:

Dish Network, has stopped Prepaid.

Pre Paid Satellite TV Available From DISH Network

C band on NSS806 40.5W reckons on a quite small dish

I think they call it dishflex or something like that now

DirectDishnet ... another alternative is having Televisa TV via internet Live. They offer channels 2,4,5,9 and TV Novela channels. Packages start at $100.00 pesos.
