The European satellite provider Eutelsat has restarted broadcasting Iran’s 24-hour English-language news channel Press TV, more than a year after it was taken off the air.
Press TV can now be viewed on Eutelsat 9A at 9.0º E, tp 56, on the frequency 11843 Hz, vertical polarization, symbol rate at 27500 and FEC at ¾.

Last month, the satellite provider Galaxy 19 (97W) resumed broadcasting Press TV, at the same time as Intelsat 20 (68.5E) started airing the Iranian 24-hour channel.
