And now the news:


---------- Eutelsat II-F1 becomes the latest home of RDV
(source: SATCO DX)

French porn channel Eurotica Rendez-Vous has been spotted on Eutelsat
II-F1, on 11,658 V - Canal 24 Horas' old frequency. So the question is,
will Rendez-Vous be moving here? I can offer two reasons why it might:
11,658 V is a frequency in the Ku-Low Band, which is viewed by more
Brits than the Ku-High Band. Besides, rent for a transponder on II-F1 is
probably much lower than rent for a HotBird 3 transponder, which would
be more suited to a digital package (indeed, Deutsche Bank is using
RDV's HotBird 3 transponder during the day for feeds!)


---------- Gay TV premieres on Astra 1C
(source: Satellite TV Europe)

Gay TV has started on 10,979 V on Astra 1C, and is now broadcasting from
04.00 to 05.00 UTC every night after Television X. In addition,
Television X have made Monday nights Gay Night, from 00.00 to 02.30 UTC.
Gay TV is a seperate package from Television X, and replaces the ailing
Talent Channel. Subscriptions are now available in the United Kingdom.


---------- Eros TV subscriptions now available in the UK

Eros TV is now legally available in the United Kingdom, and many
companies are advertising subscriptions in satellite magazines. The
channel broadcasts on Eutelsat II-F3 on 11,575 V, from 00.00 to 04.00
UTC every night in D2-MAC, scrambled in eurocrypt s2.
So, for all you passionate lovers out there, here's a list of adult
channels available on satellite at the moment:
