Serbian programming is no longer available Free-to-Air. There is a PAY service that carries Serbian /Rep.Srpska channels available for people in North America. The company is called GlobeCast. Google it up. In my own opinion, its kinda pricey, and a better idea would be to switch over to Dish Network. At least that way you can order Serbian AND American programming all on one bill, using 1 dish.

RE: RTS free-to-air


Nik,

That is exactly how to reconnect with the Serbian Diaspora in the U.S. RTS broadcast in the early 1990s reached Serbs in the U.S. and Canada via Pan-Am satellite.

It was free to air.

The broadcast started with English language news followed by original RTS news broadcast, which was then followed by, in various order: Serb Republic news, documentary, movie, music show, and children’s programming. It was six hours a day of RTS, which started at 7PM EST.

People would meet at Serbian centres to watch together, if they didn’t have satellite dishes and receivers, or if their wealthy neighbourhood had the free-to-air Pan-Am satellite signal blocked somehow in Canada. There is a case were a Serbian family moved out of the city hoping to get the Pam-Am satellite signal, which was then forbidden by the Country Club because satellite dishes were seen as an eye-soar. Personally speaking, satellite dishes at that time was a symbol of wealth. To this day that County Club sub-division is not fully developed.


Open question:
Anyone know if Anik E1 satellite is back on-air?

The first time I saw UNICEF’s Audrey Hepburn was on the English language RTS broadcast.
