    European Hispasat user here. Our two main TV providers in Portugal use Hispasat to host their tv channels (encrypted in nagravision), but those transponders are not broadcasting to America. Maybe if you had a dish with the size of a building, you could catch the signal :) It's interesting to see how wide is the coverage of a pair of satellites over the Atlantic

      Outro tuga aqui! I remember seeing an article many years ago of a man who was able to receive ASTRA 19 in America with a huge dish, I believe it was 5 meters, it was in the analogue era reception has a lot of noise but was still watchable, it was so much time ago I don't remenber the details. I can't find it anywhere though.

    One thing I want to tell everybody: Cubavisión and Cubavisión Internacional, even they share the name, they're not the same channel. Cubavisión is a national channel and only broadcasts inside Cuba, and the other is the international outlet of the Cuban broadcasts. Here in my city is a cable TV operator that has the international channel, why? Because is an FTA channel without encyption and I think they don't charge TV operators to broadcast it.

    • @robfriedrich2822
      @robfriedrich2822 Год назад +4

      The reason is licensing and copyright. Austrian television broadcasts the national program encrypted for people in Austria, my father in law, who lives in Germany pretty close to the border, purchased a DVBT receiver, to get the normal Austrian program, the non encrypted channel can't show international shows and also skips movies, would be too expensive to cover all Europe.

    Can you find the music service sat for DMX/Mood media in the birds up there?. It is listed on lyngsat for the US. Europe has it too, but the satelite is unknown, probably astra or something. I wonder if it is encrypted as the receiver boxes for in-store radio seem fairly "dumb".

I'm wondering if it's just filtering by the receiver or maybe the audio itself has a low sample rate maybe 22khz at 64kbps. Not even sure what file format is in use AAC maybe, MP3? You should do a video on that if you haven't already.
