Anyone know about this?

lyngsat shows a Sam's Club channel on Amazonas at 61.0°W. This channel is listed as "in the clear".

This is totally interesting to me. Anyone have any idea what this is? Are there others like it?

Thanks!

Along with checking if its a C or Ku signal you also have to check the FOOTPRINT or BEAM as they call it on Lyngsat, if you click on BEAM you will be taken to a picture of where you can expect to get the signal from the satellite and of course only IF they happen to be broadcasting.

OK, so it is listed as Brazil and the map only shows Brazil when I click on the link. Then I am assuming it is not available to us in North America. I know dumb question.

Its not dumb!

Sorry Its not viewable from here as that signal is not being beamed in our direction.

There's a Macy's Channel on another satellite... they have the logo + some music now and then...
