What's your Post-Equity KU Top 10?

[LoTech]

Since Equity is gone I've had to re-evaluate my FTA viewing. Below is my new Top 10 list of channels. What's yours?

1. RTN or RTV as its now called - AMC-9.
2. KTWO ABC on Galaxy 18. It's two hours behind my local ABC so I can catch up if I miss anything.
3. History Channel on AMC-4.
4. Biography Channel on AMC-4.
5. NBC Network Feed on AMC-6. For when my local channel is pre-empted.
6. Pentagon Channel on AMC-1. Interesting programming.
7. KUIL on AMC-4.
8. Montana PBS on AMC-21.
9. ABC News on Galaxy 28. 24 hour news.
10. Kuwait 2 on Galaxy 19. Lots of English shows and movies.

[Pismire]

Same stuff I have been watching since RTN left g18.

 

[LoTech]

I forgot about circular polarization. ION on Echostar 7 is pretty good too. It might bump Kuwait 2 out of the Top 10.

 

[Dale_Gribble]

If you like Kuwait 2 then I think you would like the Cubavision channels on 30 deg. west. Sometimes they run un-cut and commercial free American movies with english audio and spanish subtitles. Right now I'm in search of another primestar dish so I can watch it again.

 

[LoTech]

If you like Kuwait 2 then I think you would like the Cubavision channels on 30 deg. west.

I can't get it. There's a fairly large mountain in the way. I've heard that its a pretty good channel though.

 

[Cadsulfide]

PBS feeds on 125W
White Springs on 129W
Network feeds on 99W C Band
Russia Today on 97W
EWTN on 95W C band
Ohio News on 74W

 

[meinename]

The OP said Ku-only folks, please pay attention...

1. MHz Worldwide @ 97W all the news you could want each ran through with a different spin cycle, though I've been missing Strictly Global lately as well
2. RTN/RTV @ 83W, when I can get it! :rant:
3. PIT @ 97W, though I think my interest is waning. I think I could almost operate a uplink truck blindfolded now. NOT RECOMMENDED
4. Myx @ 97W, like some, hate some
5. UWTV @ 123W, Computer Science lectures.
6. Montana PBS @ 125W interesting stuff when their not showing stuff from the national feeds. And no AC3 required!
7. Access America @ 97W for the FTA show
8. 90.7 @ 123W play some stuff I like around the weekends.
9. Whitesprings TV @ 129W
10. KTWO at 123W, a one hour heads-up for what to record in HD OTA
11. ION-East @ 119W a 3 hour heads up, OR a movie during the 7pm Gossip hour.

These RTN, Whitesprings and PBS require me to go out and move a dish or something...
though Whitesprings and PBS won't be a problem much longer...

 

[tvropro]

On ku it's RTV on 83, History and Bio on 101. Catch a bit on 97, like Russia Today and the PIT channel. Mostly I hang out on C band on my DC-2 sub's. DVB once in a while on C.
