Scanned in 79.0W / AMC-5 yesterday I got KTEL at S= 61 and Q= 55, but when I tried for NYN which is listed on Lyngsat at: 12177H 20500 / 3/4 I got nothing?? Is NYN no longer in service or is it just not available from my area here in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada?
Is NYN on AMC-5 / 79.0W still available?

They left that location a long time ago, they were on 105.0°W AMC 15 Ku for a little while but they are no longer there.
No , those channels moved to AMC15 maybe 8 months ago, and then within a couple months they were mostly gone from there , too. Check AMC15 11736 H 20500, which is Lyngast's listing for them , I don't think it's active right now.
Once in a blue while there will be a NYN feed on 105W but its just a news feed
Those racing channels are gone

NYN moved over to 95W to the Racetrack Television Network channels, which until recently had been ITC, I believe NYN9 was actually called OTB3 on the 95W package. All gone now, dishnetwork dealing gobbled it up, now they are selling those channels as a sports package.
Wonder what the future of NYN is? What was the nature of RTN being on a state run entity...? Questions, questions...
Looks like they still list 105 as a location they uplink to.
Time will tell...

Thanks all for the replies. Wonder why its still listed on Lyngsat - talk about an out of date listing, guess I need to stick to The List. Also as has been noted I did scan in a bunch of RTN channels on Galaxy 3C 95.0W on Ku Band, but seems to me I remember them being there previously.
yes, NYN is up on AMC-15 just when needed for feeds. The fulltime service is gone.
Capital OTB is on C-band (it was the FTA racing channel 9 when there ws a 9-channel mux) and I assume channels 4-8 are part of RTN now on DISH Network since they probably are the same tracks as what RTN would also carry.
