Expressvu in San Jose

[millimeter]

I want to get Canadian News (and TSN) in San Jose, CA. I would prefer Expressvu because of the PVR but I am reading mixed messages as to whether Expressvu works in the South Bay. Can any one confirm that Expressvu works and you can get the Canadian News channels and most importantly TSN

I don't think it's allowed to have a Canadian system in the US.
Could be wrong..

pro-96 is wrong, it is possible to get SC & Evu in the US.

TSN-HD is on 82, which is viewable in the US. ExpressVu on their main satellite (91) is using 2 satellites. One doesn't have as big of a footprint as the other, so there are some transponders that won't reach Cali, AZ, TX, etc. The borders.

They are 3 7 9 11 17 21 23 25

According to Lyngsat, TSN is on 25
(if its wrong, please let us know...I don't have EVu anymore)

I found these sites before; they don't seem to be official but may be of some help. This one http://mrda.ca/N3.htm shows some people's results, and this one http://www.mrda.ca/N3map.pdf shows you may be SOL.

Iceberg, I thought that there were more Transponders than that on Nimiq3. For example TP18 is; I know that because it's where my local channels reside, and I can usually watch them even when it's pouring rain and hail.

I could be worng though.

nope. There are only 8 TP's on Nimiq 3 and none are evens
