What IS nimiq 2i???

 

[DCXFORDGM]

Nimiq 2i is the internal code used bu telesat for directv 3/dtv 3 bird.

 

[Mr Tony]

now are they on N2 (82) or N2i (N3 at 91)

You contradict yourself.

The only question I have is, these are the regional locals (CKPR is CBC Thunder Bay). Sometimes my 3100 shows these but I cant see them. Are these up and running?

 

[Mr Tony]

answered my own question...looked over at the other board

 

[DCXFORDGM]

Iceberg they are on Nimiq 2 at 82 degrees. I call nimiq 3 nimiq 2i as bell did not call nimiq 3 until a few days ago with there release news of the new bird to the public.

 

[Mr Tony]

yeah I saw that

They got the guide fixed on CKPR too (It was set for Atlantic time...not Eastern)
