Canal 24 Horas (24 Hour Channel) is TVE's 24-hour news channel. Having launched on Monday, September 15, 1997, it is Spain's first news and information channel.
The channel produces news output and factual programmes for TVE1, TVE2 and TVE Internacional, and simulcasts most domestic news programmes aired on TVE1.
[edit] Distribution
It was initially available on the Vía Digital digital satellite package on the Hispasat satellite at 30° West, and was encrypted, and thus mainly aimed to Spain, although it could also be seen simulcasted by TVE Internacional at certain times of the day. However, it eventually started simulcasting on the Eutelsat Hot Bird and SES Astra satellite system in the clear, moving later to free-to-air digital transmissions on the same satellite at a later date.
Currently, the channel is available on the Astra 1KR and Hispasat 1D satellites at 19.2°E and 30°W respectively as part of the Digital + package for Spain only, on the Eutelsat Hot Bird 2 satellite at 13°E for the whole of Europe, and the Hispasat 1C satellite at 30°W for the Americas until March 2006. Afterwards it will only be possible to receive TVE through Spanish packages offered by Dish Network and DirectTV in the Americas.
Since November 2005, it has also been available on digital terrestrial television in Spain.
TVE1 simulcasts the channel between 03.00 (local time) and 07.00.
