As most of you know, ExpressVu is using 2 satellites at 91. They are Nimiq1 and Nimiq3. Nimiq3 is an old DirecTv satellite and doesnt have the same footprint as Nimiq1. If you are in California, Arizona, southern parts of Texas, Miss, Louisiana, Alabama, and Florida, you probably will not be able to see Nimiq3. Someone asked “What am I missing” and we usually give a quick overview. Well, I decided to go through and list ALL of what is on N3.
N3 transponders at 3, 7, 9, 11, 17, 21, 23, 25

One good thing is TSN, the main sports network, use to be on TP25. It is now on TP24 and everyone can see it.
So if you’re looking to get ExpressVu and live in the areas above, you might want to see if the programming you want is on N3 and choose accordingly : )
