19.2E: TV5 Monde Europe flipped to HD
12.01.2021 11:07


The European satellite system Astra at the position of 19.2 ° E is adding free ( FTA ) programs in high definition ( HDTV ). The international French channel TV5 Monde in the European version switched to HD distribution.
The TV5 Monde Europe station is broadcast on the original parameters of the MPEG-2 / SD version. Therefore, it will usually not be necessary to retune the receiver. Viewers with outdated MPEG-2 receivers now only hear sound on that station.
TV5 Monde is an international cultural channel in France, which was founded on January 2, 1984. It offers news, information, entertainment and cultural programs to viewers outside France.

It is worth mentioning that at the 19.2 ° E position it has been broadcasting TV5 Monde FBS in HD resolution for a long time - ie the TV5 Monde program version for France, Belgium, Switzerland, Monaco, Andorra and Luxembourg.

technical parameters - TV5 Monde Europe HD:

• Astra 1L (19.2 ° E), frequency 11.538 GHz, position V, SR 22000, FEC 5/6, DVB-S / QPSK, FTA

19.2E: Arirang TV ended in SD, retune to HD
12.01.2021 10:30


Globecast has discontinued distribution of the Korean TV station Arirang TV in classic SD resolution. Viewers can now watch the same program in better technical quality - in HD.
Arirang TV is broadcast in the same multiplex as its original SD version. So all you have to do is rescan the 11.509 GHz frequency.

Arirang TV started broadcasting in HD at 19.2 ° E on October 1 last year. Since then, MPEG-2 / SD and MPEG-4 / HD have been distributed simultaneously. Viewers had several months to retune their receivers to the new transmission parameters.
Arirang TV, operated by the Korea International Broadcasting Foundation, is based in Seoul and targets audiences abroad. In 2016, it began broadcasting in HD for the British and Asian markets. Now the HD signal reaches up to 26 million households across Western Europe. It offers viewers news and Korean cultural content 24 hours a day.

technical parameters - Arirang HD:

• Astra 1L (19.2 ° E), frequency 11.509 GHz, position V, SR 22000, FEC 5/6, DVB-S / QPSK, FTA

DVB-T2: Great in lower resolution, programs without T2 extension
12.01.2021 09:00


Cosmetic and technical changes have taken place in the Czech land multiplexes. Prima, the main channel of the Czech media group FTV Prima, has switched to a lower resolution. Newly broadcasts in 1280x720p resolution instead of the original 1440x1080p.
Prima provides in HD resolution 1280x720p in DVB-T2 almost all its programs - thematic programs Prima COOL , Prima LOVE , Prima KRIMI , Prima MAX , Prima ZOOM and CNN Prima News and now also the main channel Prima. The time-shifted version of the Prima program - ie Prima +1 is broadcast in SD quality (960x544p).

Prima uses DVB-T2 multiplex 22 , operated by České Radiokomunikace, to distribute its programs to terrestrial transmitters .

The second change in terrestrial broadcasting is more or less cosmetic - commercial programs are now broadcast without the suffix T2 in the station name. The label no longer made sense. The transition to the second generation of DVB-T2 terrestrial broadcasting was completed at the end of October last year.

Until now, **** and **** Cinema stations in the Czech Digital Group network ( multiplex 23 ) and all programs with the Digital Broadcasting operator ( multiplex 24 ) had T2 in their name . Only Czech Television programs now have the suffix T2 in the name.

Skylink: N-o-v-a 2 and Prima Love in HD, completion of station retuning
11.01.2021 13:36


Changes for customers of the Czech-Slovak satellite platform Skylink . The Czech commercial programs N-o-v-a 2 and Prima LOVE are now provided in high definition ( HDTV ). At the same time, the simultaneous broadcasting of programs on old and new parameters ended. Who has not retuned yet, must do now.
In the first place, the simultaneous distribution of a total of 25 television programs on old and new frequencies ended. In the old positions there is now a static screen with text in Czech and Slovak language about changing the transmission parameters of the program. All you have to do now is retune the programs.
The following stations are now broadcasting in the new positions:
* REBEL
* RELAX
* HBO 2
* HBO 3
* Cinemax
* Cinemax 2
* Film Europe + HD
* Film Europe HD
* FilmBox Extra HD
* FilmBox Stars
* FilmBox Premium HD
* Adventure TV
* Hobby TV
* Mňam TV
* Retro Music Television
* Mezzo
* JimJam
* Minimax
* Arena Sport 1
* Golf Channel
* UP Network
* Viasat Explore
* Viasat History
* Viasat Nature
* Leo TV


8 HD programs on Skylink

With the transition of programs to new broadcast transponders, in many cases the stations were switched to high definition (HDTV). Specifically, the following eight stations are now in better quality - HBO 2 HD, HBO 3 HD, Cinemax HD, Cinemax 2 HD, Mezzo HD, Arena Sport 1 HD, Viasat History HD and Viasat Nature HD.

Retuning programs

Customers with FastScan receivers don't have to worry about retuning programs - their device automatically downloads the latest channel map, including program news. The retuning thus applies exclusively to clients with set top boxes or TVs without FastScan, who must fine-tune the programs manually by entering the parameters listed below.

Retuning applies to virtually all Skylink viewers, regardless of the program package they have active. The new parameters are also broadcast by Adventure TV, Relax, Rebel, Retro Music Television and Mňam TV, which are part of the lowest multi-channel DIGITAL package.

N-o-v-a 2 HD and Prima LOVE HD

With the switch-off of parallel distribution of the above-mentioned stations, satellite capacity has been freed up to improve the distribution of existing stations, which are in the lowest packages. Skylink now offers customers N-o-v-a 2 HD and Prima LOVE HD stations, which have so far been provided in SD resolution. Significantly, the two programs have retained their original positions. This means that these two programs do not need to be retuned - they are broadcast on the positions of the original SD stations.

Other upcoming news on Skylink

M7 Group (Canal + Luxembourg) is preparing further news for Skylink customers. For example, from February, it will offer clients a new a-d-u-l-t channel VIXEN HD as well as Dorcel HD and Dorcel XXX HD.

The Falcon 9 rocket launched the Türksat 5A satellite
08/01/2021 18:40


The Falcon 9 launch vehicle successfully launched from Cape Canaveral and launched the Turkish telecommunications satellite Türksat 5A into space on Thursday evening. It was the first of 40 Falcon missions planned for this year.

The Falcon 9 rocket was launched more than 45 minutes late to assess the readiness of the Gabonese monitoring station. The launch finally took place and Falcon 9 took off from the SLC-40 field at Space Force Station in Cape Canaveral on January 8, 2021 at 9:15 PM local time (2:15 GMT).
About 2.5 minutes after the launch of Falcon 9, the first stage separated and descended towards the SpaceX ship parked in the Atlantic Ocean about 650 km east of Cape Canaveral.

Turkish officials quickly confirmed that after takeoff, ground teams received the first radio signals from Türksat 5A, which allowed controllers to begin verifying the status of the satellite. With a starting weight of around 3,400 km, the Türksat 5A dismantles solar panels and starts plasma engines. The ascent to geostationary orbit by electric motors will take about 4 months. Electric jet engines use less fuel than conventional liquid rocket engines, but produce less thrust and take longer to process.
Türksat 5A was produced and supplied by Airbus Defense and Space in cooperation with Turkey. The satellite will provide television services and data communications in Turkey, the Middle East, Europe and Africa via 42 transponders in the Ku band. The operator has not yet published coverage maps.

The Türksat 5A satellite is to operate at an orbital position of 31 ° E and is to operate for more than 30 years, twice as long as standard satellites. The satellite will be launched in mid-2021. This satellite will become the most powerful satellite in the Türksat fleet.

Selected technical parameters
satellite: Türksat 5A


planned position: 31 ° E
number of transponders in the Ku band: 42
planned services: television broadcasting, data communication
coverage: Turkey, Europe, Middle East, Africa
satellite manufacturer: Airbus Defense and Space
expected life: 30 years
