>Anyone know where TV PLUS and Eurotica have gone?


The question about TV Plus was already 
asked by Mutti Andrea on 29-1-97. 
The answer was: 

TV Plus was a experimental program
from the national TV organization NOS
from Holland to show 16:9 widescreen pictures
in encrypted D2MAC. But since the 16:9
widescreen standard has become Pal Plus this
service has stopped. But you probably meant
the not encrypted Euro7 station which shared
this transponder with TV Plus. According to
my satellite magazine it's now on 11080 H
together with Al Jazeera Sat Channel.

Yes Eurotica is on Eutel16E 11.151H

Just about right, except that Thor 2 was due to be *launched* on 22 Feb;
it wouldn't have been at 0.8W, or transmitting, until a few weeks after
that date (or by "on it's [sic] position" did you mean "on the top of a
Delta rocket? :-)

I don't know of any for sure but Italia 1 must be favorite to show
some of the races like they did last year.
