And now the news:
---------- Sky Digital with another package
Yet another package from Sky Digital on Astra 1D! This time on 11.758
H, with the usual colour bars, test cards and Sky News. The channels
labelled Sky Sports 1, Sky Sports 2, Sky Movies Screen 1, Sky Movies
Screen 2 and Sky One are now all encrypted, presumably with NDC. Perhaps
these channels are now transmitting properly on Astra 1D...
---------- Bloomberg Info TV to go?
(source: Satélite TV Europa)
According to Spanish magazine Satélite TV Europa, Bloomberg Info TV UK
will cease transmissions on Astra 1A soon and will be replaced by
Bloomberg Info TV Germany, henceforth only being available digitally. No
such rumours have been hovering around yet, and Bloomberg have not such
a move. We'll have to wait and see...
********** INTERNAL
Logotypes updates have been effected for all of the Astra satellites.
Most of the logotypes on Astra 1A, 1B, 1C and 1E have been replaced. All
those on 1F and 1G which were not screenshot logotypes have beeb
removed. I cannot capture screenshots for the digital channels as my
computer and my digital receiver are in different rooms. If anyone can
help out, please do. A list of desired logotypes is available at
http://www.sat-uk.com/sats/logotypes.txt .
