Live Olympics CBC / NBC?

[i4tas]

I would like to watch the oylmpics opening live tomorrow morning.

NBC is doing tape delay

CBC will show it live at 7 AM ET.

Does anyone know of a CBC HD feed?
English is prefered?

Right now the only thing I found is:
Radio Canada Montreal (CBC) on ANIK F1R (Cband)

Radio Canada Montréal will work but it is SD and French

I figure this doesn't need to be in the WUT, but I will also check there for feeds.

Standard Definition - I don't think there's a need for HD in Cuba.

Telerebelde on Hispasat @ 30.0 west (Ku Cuba Mux )
Will change all programming to Olympic Coverage starting Friday.
8 am Eastern Start of Olympic Ceremonies
followed by regular programming , but once that programming is done...... it will be Full Olympics Coverage again from 8PM Eastern according to info.

too far east for me, plus that feed would be in spanish. At least it is a Ku alternative for some.

8 am Eastern Start of Olympic Ceremonies

cbc.ca says 7 AM ET is the start

AMC 1 is also a feeds bird for NBC, so give it a shot.

I believe CBC, like NBC is using fiber. I don't expect to find any HD feeds. But you never know. I'll be looking anyway.

NTA (Nigerian Television Authority) on Ia5/G25 (97 West) has it live and in English.

11898V 22000 SR - according to Lyngsat

I forgot to check any of the CCTVs to see if it showed up there. It's not likely, but still a shot (EDIT - it's not there)

EDIT: It's also on Al Fayhaa in Arabic on Ia5 (11966 H 22000) and NAT TV in Thai (12090 H 20000) RTA 1 in French (w/ English in the back) on 11991 V 22000 Abu Dabhi Sports (12146 V 22000)

Hopefully one or some of these will have some more coverage at any given time!

What's with the NTA video quality at Olympics? Looks like someone was using a cellphone camera.

Seems like Abu Dhabi Sport is having intermittent transmission trouble as well. It's not my setup - signal quality here in NW Washington is 72 to 78%. But, the upside is they're 24/7 Olympics (or so it appears) with graphics in English, and sometimes it's commentary-free - which is a good thing in any language.

So, with my motorized (Sadoun!) setup on ze patio for the above plus Telemundo West via New Mexico (dish isn't opening up 'mundo for these Olympics I notice), and a saucer-style antenna clamped to a fencepost in the backyard for the CBC and sometimes SRC, and D* for the Peacock bouquet, I guess I'm covered. Maybe, TOO covered???

It's probably all they could afford because no one has come forward to release their millions in the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Haven't checked on Anik F1R, but in here in Winnipeg , Manitoba Canada - NBC feeds are available with Olympic coverage on: 99.0W, as well as on 95.0W - LPTV Yakima, Washington, on C Band.

Tunis TV 7 on Galaxy 25 (97W) has the Olympics as well.
