A new NBC Mux (ku band)

If you don't have a c band dish, the NBC mux on 105w is now being mirrored on 103w ku band. It may be permanent or just a temporary mux for the Tokyo Summer Olympics. It is worth noting that this mux has a couple of extra feeds in addition to the usual NBC programming, so it could very well be used for Olympic feeds.

Thanks fatso. I was just looking at 103 west Ku band, and it has a LOT of FTA content these days. If you're too broke for a pay service, can't live with a handful of terrestrial channels, no money for a C band dish (not that any are available these days), then try to aim a Ku band dish at 103 west.

Here is what you will get:

-NBC (east,west,central, mountain feeds) HD
-DW TV (news) HD
-CGTN (news) HD
-NHK (news) HD
-CNBC (business) SD
-MSNBC (news) SD
-NASA (feeds from ISS) SD
-Cozi (classic TV) SD
-Telemundo (spanish programming) HD
-SBN (religious programming) SD
-Movie News (latest films) HD
-Cold Fusion (documentaries) HD

In addition, many music stations (I think you have to enter the PIDs manually), additional NBC feeds (breaking news) and a variety of morning shows, news from various broadcasters (wild feeds that you need to blind scan).

The recommended dish size is 1.2m, but a slightly smaller dish will work too. It's better than nothing!
