CNN US & Headline News

I cant find either of those stations on Telstar 11.
Are they still available, no signal detected on that frequency.
Anybody help with this?

Still there.

These channels are on the European North Spot beam, a lot weaker than the European Wide beam.

CNN Channels - 10% signal.
NTL Channels - 55% signal.

Thanks for the info.
From the coverage map I expected to receive them, I'll have to be content with MSNBC on Telstar 12!

Unfortunately the CNN channels on 37.5 west are scrambled.

They were free for a period of time, but they've been scrambled in an unknown encryption for 18 months or so.

Somebody reported the surveillance channels on this transponder to the media.

I note that the US-CNN channels are also on Telstar 12 now. My Humax 8100 does not display that they are scrambled but does detect a signal stonger than DAD-5 feed at the moment. Does anyone know if they are moving from Telstar 11?
