'France Televisions inks deal with Eutelsat'

Company: Eutelsat Communications (EUTLF)

European satellite operator Eutelsat Communications and public broadcaster France Televisions have entered into a long-term contract for broadcasting the regional channels produced by France 3 on the Atlantic Bird 3 satellite located at 5 degrees West. From 28 October, all homes in France equipped with a dish to receive Atlantic Bird 3 and a subscription-free Fransat decoder will have access to digital reception of all 24 of France 3's regional channels. This will benefit viewers beyond range of terrestrial reception after analogue switch-off, as well as homes already equipped for DTH analogue TV reception from Atlantic Bird 3. The 24 regional channels produced by France 3 will join the eighteen national channels in SD and the four channels in HD that are already available on a subscription-free basis via Fransat.
