BBC broadcasts over ku band in North America?

[thomascrown]

Hey guys, new to the site and hoping you can help me out.

My brother and I are getting in to FTA and home built satellite stuff and I am trying to find a way to catch BBC broadcasts here in North America (Houston, TX). So far, I have only found BBC on the satellite Astra 2, which is well over the horizon.

Any ideas of how I can get BBC here?

You can find BBC World on C-band, Galaxy 13 @ 127.0w. You can also find EuroNews and Al Jazeera English on C-band, Intelsat Americas 13 @ 121.0w.

Thanks for the info. I know BBC World is available, but I was looking more to be able to get their non-news content (shows like Top Gear, Spooks, etc).

This saddens me. *sniffle*

Could you tell me where i can find Al Jazeera (english) on C-band?
Does it require 4DTV?

Thanks
