The Met Feeds have all come through on the same frequency in the past, so once you've added the transponder and done a scan, it should just be a case of going back to it each month.

Fingers crossed then, I'm really looking forward to this.... Just wish I could be there to see it live.

Deputy Dawg TV!!!!
Seriously, there's a channel called DDTV which when I first found it was showing Deputy Dawg in Romanian. I was quite disappointed when I found out the real name (DIRECT DIGITAL TV).
Duna2 does carry a fair bit of classical music, but aside from that not much.
Based upon last seasons transmissions, these frequencies may be of use:-
Thor 0.8W
11.532 V SR 12890 FEC 3/4 is normally the one with English sub titles.
11.512 V SR 12890 FEC? German sub titles?
Atlantic Bird 5W
11.675 SR12890 FEC? French subtitles.
There are a few more frequencies available I believe, hopefully the Scanning Geeks will come up with them. The circuits are usually available one or two hours before transmission.
I ended up recording it as I wouldn't have been able to watch the end... so looking forward to watching, probably next weekend now.
My concern with the feed above (thanks Phil) is that it's quite a weak signal for me and I fear I may loose it in bad weather. I assume they deliberately transmit them at reduced power?
Did it appear on any other satellites last night? I must confess I didn't check as I went for the English subtitles in the end... I'm such a lightweight
Just to bump these links and remind you all Mozart’s Don Giovanni – New Production October 29 (My wife's birthday), 2011, 12:55 pm ET hopefully available on one of the feeds given earlier!
Just to let you know 11592 H SR25780 on 5W is now live for the Met broadcast.
It scans as two channels, French and Spanish on this frequency.
11467 V SR12890 is also live on 0.8W but the signal is breaking up for me today due to less favourable weather. This was the English version last time, but by the looks of it I'll be watching in French on 5W.

I had a few sound glitches tonight on 5W so would be interested if anyone else had these too... It came through as strong as any other station on that satellite and the sound is fine on those so no reason I should have had any issues this end as far as I can tell.

I had it on 5w for a bit and had no sound issues at all. Just a little soft on 0.8w but again sound was perfect. Although I watched mostly on 0.8w so i might have missed the bad sounds

Probably just my box then, it's not exactly top of the range!

The only real difference seems to be the SR setting so I'm wondering if my box is struggling with that.”
What box have you got? If its fine on all other channels then its probably just the signal/broadcast feed and ive not noticed it
