Telemundo on AMC5

[playyymaster]

Hello everyone,

I can't get Telemundo on AMC 5 anymore. Is it still there?
I just got a 120 cm Fortec Star dish and it is HUGE I am afraid to attach it to my motor. Has anyone done this and not fried the motor?

Thanks,

Telemundo is there for me...

If you want Spanish programming you may want to go C-band and get a bigger dish

The Fortec is not that big, I had one didn't like it much, I replaced it with a Patriot 1.1 meter both have been on my Stab HH120 and I have not had any problems.

Thanks guys, I guess I have to tweak the dish a little more for Telemundo.
How about PBS? they seem to be very weak

PBS is weak but they are there

12180 V 30000 (while bunch of them in AC-3 audio)
12145 H 4340 (Montana PBS)

I'm confused the pbs in on AMC-3 right? Telemundo is on AMC-5 (carlsbad) or is there one on AMC-3 also. Also the PBS on AMC-3 here is really strong (or was) I havent looked in awile, I get AMC-3 really strong (supprisingly).

Also there is allot of spanish on G10r - ku (no telemundo though), telemundo seems few and far between.

Hi ICSTEPHEN,

You are right, I am talking about too many things in one post and not specifying their location.
I guess this happens when you are used to having a motor.

The spanish channels i get are:

Telemundo (used to)
Azteca 7
Azteca 13
Univision 1
Univision 2
Telefutura
Gol TV

Everything else is in english and or repeat stations of the previous.

Are there any other good spanish stations that I am missing? (non religious ones)

Thanks,

its ok...I have been below the curve this week and I was scratching my head, I am not sure what is out there as I don't spak spanish although I did used to watch a few shows on Telemundo and I sometimes watch superginate (sp?), I think there might be allot of stuff on C-band on the mexican satellites but I have not looked. The only stuff I know of on Ku is G10r & G26 (ex-IA6)

He's talking about the PBS audio, it's in AC-3. This is an audio format that needs a decoder in order for you to hear it, not a different satellite.

V-me ( is like a Spanish PBS ) AC-3 Audio and can be found along with the PBS stations on AMC 3 @ 87.0 W.

A couple of TELEVISA channels from Northern Mexico can be found at 43.0 W. , programming and Feeds starts in AM and one channel does show old movies , not consistent sometimes channels are switched off in early evening.

Other than that , Plenty of Spanish Channels from Cuba -Spain-South America( I like them ) but you have to swing over to Hispasat @ 30.0 W.

yea but he did not differentiate between the two and it sounded (in conjunction with the post he was replying to) that PBS was on AMC-5. I know all about AC3 unfortunately, however my fix for that is scheduled to arrive Monday.
