Milhaguet, France -- The American news and business channel CNBC started permanently transmitting free to air a couple of days ago. Previous to this, it was necessary to have a Sky subscription in order to watch it but non Sky subscribers can receive it on channel 505. It can be received on free to air satellite receivers but you will have to add in the Transponder information and do a manual search. The information you need is: Frequency = 11261 Polarity = Horizontal Symbol Rate = 27500 CNBC will probably appear on the Freesat EPG at a future date but, for the moment, you can add it to your list of channels in 'non-freesat' mode. You will need to know the figures above and your instruction manual will tell you how to do it. Our website also tells you how to add channels in non-freesat mode and that's in the freesat factsheets.
