And now the news:


---------- ScreenShop - yet another shopping channel

Yet another shopping channel, ScreenShop, has started on Astra. The
all-new order-from-home channel is currently broadcasting on 10,816 V
(tp 56), where AstraVision '96 was previously broadcasting. The channel
would appear to be an all day version of Sell-a-Vision, although at the
time of writing (12.00), it is not known if this channel will continue
all day. The channel is in English, but is also aimed at Germany, the
Netherlands and Scandinavia. It is currently in the clear, so it look
unlikely that it is part of the Sky package (unless it is following by
QVC's example). More news on this channels will follow tomorrow.


---------- TV Norge now only on Thor II

TV Norge has left is long-used frequency on Intelsat 707 of 11,016 H. It
is now only available from its frequency on Thor II. A new digital
package has started on Intelsat 707 on 11,012 H, so it is very unlikely
that this frequency will see analogue transmissions again for a while,
it at all. TV Norge is also available in a few digital package on
Intelsat 707 and Thor II.
