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. FTAList.com - Spanish Channel List |

There might be some spillover: 
The beam looks more like a zone beam than a spot beam..... Quote:

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:   |

In that same topic, there's a televisa website where they offer some of their content for free, it's called tvolucion, that is if she doesn't care to watch taped shows: Code: http://www.tvolucion.com/
She may need to register to get full access to what they offer like forums and things like that.
