There's a new subchannel notwork for local stations called Mundo Fox....

[N5XZS]

I was browsing on the internet, and I found a new spanish network called Mundo Fox that's supposed to go on the air in late Augest or early Steptember at the most.

Do think it might be on C band more than anything else or if we are lucky to get it on KU band if so what birds it will be on?

Mundofox

More goodies all the better!!

 

[Mr Tony]

Fox owns it so no it wont be available on satellite. Well it will be on C-Band but Fox uses its own setup (like Directv does) so our receivers wont be able to see it (and it will probably be scrambled)

suppose to launch August 13th

 

[Mr Tony]

side note.....you must not watch Fox that much because they have been "pimpin" this channel since January

yup
Equity had Fox affiliates in
Marquette, Michigan
Fort Smith, Arkansas
then added the Montana ones in Great Falls, Missoula and Bozeman
These were on 123W

Also there was KUIL-LP in Beaumont, TX that was on AMC4 (SES1 101W).

About 6 years ago on 123W we had the Equity nets and the USVI/PR stations (just CBS, UPN and ABC). WVGN NBC was on 101W Ku
Dont forget K2TV out of Wyoming too

 

[Mr Tony]

Lyngsat from 6/9/09 (Equity has just sold off everything in bankruptcy court but the stations were still up)

[Mr Tony]

yup. Fixed dishes at 123W were common

Then add an LNB to the right for White Springs, and one to the left for NASA, and I was one happy camper (and then, of course, came the addition of other dishes and LNBs).

Found a listing I had in the summer of 2006 for Equity's English programming on 123 (believe it originally came from Mike Kohl's site) and was before the UPN/WB merger:

11719 KKTU (ABC) Cheyenne, Wyoming

11719 WNGS (RTN) Buffalo, New York
11719 KWWF (UPN) Waterloo, Iowa

11719 KWFT (WB) Fort Smith, Arkansas
11798 KTVC (UPN) Roseburg, Oregon
11798 KQUP (RTN) Spokane, Washington
11798 WMQF (FOX) Marquette, Michigan
11798 KYPX (RTN) Camden / Little Rock, Arkansas
11798 KWBF (WB) Little Rock, Arkansas

Yes, they were. I set up my first dish May 23 2006 to specifically get RTN.

According to a post you did in this thread, they started in July 2005!

IIRC, by the time I setup my dish in 2006, some stations were showing a fairly full schedule, during the day and at night. I could only find a March 2007 schedule on the internet for several of the stations, some day and night, others only a night schedule.
