I started a thread like this years back but thought it would be nice to update.Metv is number 1 for me on the c-band side (101) and RTV on the ku-band (97).

I spend most of my time on 99W C as there's several good channels on that one.

NBC East on 105 C-Band because I can watch prime time 3 hours early. NASA TV is a close 2nd.

Is this list specific to a certain satellite or are you guys just listing your favorite among all sats/trasnponders?
If so, is there already a thread going on for each satellite about what everyone is watching? I just fixed mine *Thanks to Titanium and other extremely helpful members , and I think there are over 400 channels. Besides what I usually watch, it's nearly impossible to tell if there is anything worth watching by just surfing. Is there a thread or discussion on what is worth watching on Galaxy 97?

I believe it's your one favorite channel from everything you are able to receive. I had to name a few (I couldn't pick just one).

I wish Al Jazeera English (not Al Jazeera America) would be available a la carte on Shaw Direct, I have the BBC World News for the 99 cents, though, but I would be willing to pay for AJE.
