The holy grail of FTA: free porn

[pestie]

On SatcoDX's listings for AMC4, there are two channels listed which appear to be free porn - Free-X TV and X-Dream TV. I'm sure many of you have noticed this and gone looking for them before, only to find that they're not there. X-Dream and Free-X do seem to be on some European sat, although encrypted.

While the idea of FTA porn is tantalizing, I'm more curious about the fact that the transponder they were on was at 11.654 GHz. That's not a standard North American frequency, is it? Don't they generally start at 11.700 GHz or so? Or is that just the center frequency of the transponder or something, and 11.654 is near the bottom of the range or something? Might there be other intersting things to find on these "off" frequencies on the North American sats?

LOL, tantalizing, yes, but 'holy' might not be the right word...

They are not free... I forget the pricing but it was like 40 bucks a month.

inxworld.com or google Free-X TV and/or X-Dream TV

The info is out there. I wandered into it a month or so ago.

That leaves us with FTV on IA5.

I think you need clean LOS to their birds, a FTA receiver with universal LNB and smart card or CAM slots (or imbedded Irdeto) so that you can buy their programming. They send you their Irdeto access cards for $39 Euros / 6 mos ($46.84) plus S/H.

Everybody who has subscribed to these channels have complained that they stop working after a few months if at all. Don't waste your money.
Also the "Free" in the name stands for "Freedom of Expression". It is not related to the cost.

Oh, I had no problem finding information about those channels via Google (and as an Ubuntu Linux user, I'm still spyware-free). What was so tantalizing was that SatcoDX listed them as in the clear. But like I said in my original post, I was most curious about the weird transponder frequency. The transponder's still there - GCN is still there in the clear, if I'm not mistaken.

I can't wait 'til my Fortec gets here so I can start blind-scanning things. My receiver is such a piece of crap it's not even funny.

SatcoDX listed them as in the clear.

Most people who update SatcoDx are located in Europe. Their NA listings tend to be outdated.

OK, that explains it. I did notice those particular entries were from a scan someone in Brazil did in 8/2004. I've also noticed that Lyngsat tends to be more up-to-date than SatcoDX.

I knew I had seen this somehwere... In surfing around tonight I bumped into in again.

They say it is on T5. I have no clue. I don't even know how reputable these people are. If you are in Los Angles, maybe you can look them up.

Info presented for what it is worth.
