Is there a PBS Kids feed up there?

Cheers, K

All Day long on 125W on the east and west feed, and on 87W on LPBHD. Actually it is on Montana and OETA also, during the day. And the PBS on [strike]101W[/strike] 103W C-Band.

Thanks Ke!

Gotta start weaning the little guy off the Ipad (PBS Kids app).. hopefully it playing on the TV wont take all of his attention.

Yep my little guys watch PBS most of the day, when they are not outside. I don't like the crap on Cartoon Network and some of the others.

Sometimes PBS gets a bad rap for being boring or geared towards the 'artsy' old folks... but PBS Kids is a great channel. Good, clean, quality and educational programming geared towards kids. Way better than the paid channels IMO.

I said 101W didn't I, I meant 103W. Not watched it there in awhile, mostly watch it on 125W Ku.

Absolutely way better, that other crap is just trashing children's minds.

Slightly off topic, but I believe pertinent.

Knowledge BC runs Kids programming during the day and a lot British/PBS style programming at night.. Any previously subbed StarChoice/ShawDirect receiver can pick up the standard def channel. You'd have to put up a fixed dish or McGyver another receiver and motor into the mix to hit the Anik sat.
?
The old receivers and dishes can be picked up very cheap these days, approaching free... Might be worth a dedicated dish on an old CRT for the little 'uns.

some PBS stations have a 24 hour feed of PBS Kids as a subchannel (but its just a loop of programming though....repeated every 6 or 8 hours)

Qubo is another decent children's channel on one of the C band sats, don't remember which off the top of my head.
