⚡ Quick Answer
Today is a busy day for satellite news: 23 new channels and 2 departures across 7 orbital positions in the last 48 hours. The headline is an 11-channel ION Media Networks bouquet confirmed on SES 21 (131°W C-band) — ION TV East and West, Court TV, Grit, Bounce, Laff, Scripps News and more — resolving yesterday's unverified watch item. Also new: Kurdistan News TV on Intelsat 20 (68.5°E), S4C HD Wales and KixPower on Astra 2G (28.2°E), three new services on Al Yah 1 (52.5°E), a new FEED transponder lights up on ABS 2A (75°E), and C1 debuts on Telstar 12 Vantage (15°W). No BISS keys were officially issued for any of these — none are printed anywhere in this report.

📡 Intelsat 20 (68.5°E) — 4 New Channels
The busiest position of the day: one 13-Oct-dated KingOfSat entry plus three new LyngSat channel listings on the Sentech multiplex.
Kurdistan News TV — 11608.00 H
Kurdistan News TV is listed as a new 13-October-2026 channel on Intelsat 20 at 11608.00 MHz horizontal, SR 4500, FEC 1/2. The listing appeared in KingOfSat's 13-Oct-2026 dated news — the clearest “new launch” of the day.
TellyTrack International, Pax Network & 1Gospel — 11514 V
Three new LyngSat channel entries share the same multiplex: TellyTrack International (horse racing), Pax Network and 1Gospel on 11514.00 MHz vertical, SR 28750, FEC 5/6, MPEG-2. This is the same transponder that carried Platinum North West TV's FTA launch yesterday — the mux continues to grow.
📡 Al Yah 1 (52.5°E) — 3 New Services
KingOfSat's per-position news lists three new channels on the same 11958 V transponder — a busy regional multiplex.
New TV (Afghanistan)
New TV (Afghanistan) is flagged NEW on Al Yah 1 at 11958 V, SR 27500, FEC 7/8, DVB-S2. Encryption status was not published by the source.
TV5 (UZB)
TV5 (UZB) — an Uzbekistan service — appears as NEW on the same 11958 V transponder with identical parameters.
Jahan Nojoom
Jahan Nojoom (جهان نجوم) completes the trio of new listings on 11958 V. Modulation and encryption fields were not published; treat it as a ticker-level sighting until a channel page confirms details.
📡 Astra 2G (28.2°E) — 2 New, 2 Departures
The UK position shuffles its lineup: two arrivals, two departures on neighbouring transponders.
S4C HD Wales — 11225 V
S4C HD Wales — the Welsh-language broadcaster — is a new LyngSat channel entry on 11225 V, SR 23000, FEC 2/3. The listing was discovered via LyngSat's 28.2°E latest-additions roll, cross-confirmed against the Astra 2G channel page.
KixPower arrives, Kix & Rishtey Cineplex leave — 11305 V
KixPower is NEW on 11305 V, SR 27500, FEC 2/3, effectively replacing Kix, which is now listed as departed (LEFT) from the same transponder. Rishtey Cineplex also left 11305 V. If you were tracking either channel, rescan 11305 V and look for KixPower in your place.
📡 ABS 2A (75°E) — New FEED Transponder + Iran TV HD
FEED — 11605 V (new frequency entry)
KingOfSat's 13-Oct-2026 new-frequencies edition lists a new FEED on ABS 2A at 11605 V, SR 4320, FEC 3/4, DVB-S2/8PSK. Feed transponders typically carry occasional feeds rather than 24/7 channels — scan it to see what is on air now.
Iran TV HD — 11605 V
Iran TV HD appears as a NEW channel on the same 11605 V transponder. Note: this is not the Iran TV HD reported yesterday on Al Yah 1 (52.5°E) — a distinct service on ABS 2A (75°E), reported here for the first time. Parameters identical to the feed above: SR 4320, FEC 3/4, DVB-S2/8PSK.
📡 Telstar 12 Vantage (15°W) — C1
C1 — 11646 V
A new C1 channel listing appears on Telstar 12 Vantage at 11646 V, SR 3500, FEC 1/2 — a narrow transponder typical of a single-service uplink. Modulation details were not published.
📡 SES 21 (131°W C-Band) — 11 ION Media Networks Channels
The day's biggest story resolves yesterday's unverified watch item: LyngSat's SES 21 channel page now confirms 11 ION Media Networks channels flagged NEW on transponder 22. Shared parameters for the whole bouquet: 4140 MHz horizontal, DVB-S2/8PSK, SR 30000, FEC 2/3, provider ION Media Networks, ONID-TID 1-1, North America beam (44 dBW EIRP).
The 11 channels (with SIDs)
- ION TV East (SID 18, HD) & ION TV West (SID 17, HD) — the flagship feeds
- Court TV (SID 11, HD), Grit (SID 10, HD), Bounce (SID 29, HD)
- Laff (SID 27, SD), Scripps News (SID 30, HD), ION Mystery (SID 204, SD)
- Game Show Central (SID 216, SD), ION Plus East (SID 217, SD), Busted (SID 218, SD)
LyngSat's encryption column is empty for all 11, so they look FTA — but this is inferred from the page, not stated. Run a blind scan on 4140 H and confirm each channel actually decodes before celebrating. Already on the same mux but not new: HSN, QVC US and SD duplicates of Grit/Court TV/Bounce.
🛠️ How to Tune the New Channels (Receiver Guide)
A new listing on a tracking site does not mean the channel lands in your receiver by itself. Use this checklist to lock every record in this report:
- Add or update the transponder manually. Enter the exact frequency, polarization, symbol rate and FEC from the table above (Menu → Installation → Transponder List → Add).
- Scan that single transponder only (blind scan is slower and can duplicate). New channels appear at the end of your channel list.
- Check the beam. Most of today's finds are on regional beams — 68.5°E and 75°E favour Africa/Asia, 28.2°E is UK-spot, 52.5°E covers the Middle East and South Asia. If the dish size is below the footprint's minimum, the transponder will show 0% quality.
- Handle the DVB-S2X/MPEG-2 mix. Today's ABS 2A transponders use DVB-S2/8PSK and several Intelsat 20 newcomers are MPEG-2 SD — an older HD-only box may skip them. A receiver with DVB-S2X support future-proofs new scans.
- Re-scan after departures. Kix and Rishtey Cineplex left 11305 V on Astra 2G — delete the dead entries or your favourites list will keep grey placeholders.
- C-band needs a C-band setup. The 11 new ION channels are on SES 21 C-band (4140 H) — a Ku-band LNB will not see them. You need a C-band LNB and typically a 1.8 m or larger dish for the North America beam.
🔒 Authorized Access Information
Officially issued BISS/PowerVu keys for this window: 0. No operator published keys for any of the 25 records above, and this site never prints keys that were not officially released. The FTA and ticker-level sightings in this report carry technical parameters only. Channels listed with encryption status N/A should be treated as unknown-access until their channel pages confirm otherwise.
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Which new satellite channel is the biggest story today?
The 11-channel ION Media Networks bouquet on SES 21 (131°W, 4140 H, SR 30000, FEC 2/3) — it resolves yesterday's unverified watch item and is the largest single launch of the day: ION TV East and West, Court TV, Grit, Bounce, Laff, Scripps News, ION Mystery, Game Show Central, ION Plus East and Busted.
Are the 11 ION channels on SES 21 free-to-air?
They look FTA: LyngSat's encryption column is empty for all 11 on the 4140 H transponder. But that is inferred from the page, not explicitly stated — run a blind scan on 4140 H and confirm each channel decodes before treating it as free.
Is Iran TV HD on ABS 2A the same as the one on Al Yah 1?
No. Yesterday's Iran TV HD was reported on Al Yah 1 (52.5°E, 11958 V, SR 27500). Today's new listing is a distinct service on ABS 2A (75°E, 11605 V, SR 4320). Same name, different satellite, different parameters — a good reminder to check orbital position before assuming a duplicate.
Why did Kix disappear from Astra 2G?
Kix left 11305 V on Astra 2G (28.2°E) and the transponder now carries KixPower (11305 V, SR 27500, FEC 2/3). Rescan the transponder and KixPower should replace it.
What happened to Rishtey Cineplex?
Rishtey Cineplex is listed as departed (LEFT) from 11305 V on Astra 2G. The removal was recorded on LyngSat's latest-additions roll within the last 48 hours.
What does “N/A” mean in the parameters table?
It means the source did not publish that parameter. We never invent frequencies, symbol rates or encryption states — N/A is our honest marker for “not given”.
Are any of today's channels free-to-air?
The sources list several as FTA or ticker sightings, but most channel entries do not state encryption status. Treat entries marked N/A as unknown-access and scan to confirm.
Where can I watch these new channels?
Point your dish at the listed orbital position, add the transponder manually with the exact parameters above, and run a single-transponder scan. Check your location against the satellite's coverage footprint first.
