WALTA TV channel Satellite NSS 12 / EthioSat

WALTA TV (Walta TV) on NSS 12 / EthioSat (57.0°E) – latest parameters (as of early 2026 updates):

Primary / Main Frequency (EthioSat Ku-band – East Africa beam)

  • Satellite: NSS-12 at 57.0° East
  • Frequency: 11105 MHz
  • Polarization: Horizontal (H)
  • Symbol Rate: 45000
  • FEC: 2/3 or 5/6 (sources list both; most common is 2/3 or Auto)
  • System: DVB-S2 / QPSK
  • Quality: HD (MPEG-4), Free-to-Air (FTA)
  • Language: Amharic

This is the most widely reported and stable frequency across recent sources (FlySat, SatBeams-related lists, Ethiopian frequency sites, and EthioSat channel lists updated into 2025–2026).

Walta TV on Ethiosat (NSS-12 at 57.0°E, mainly East Africa beam):

Primary (HD, most common Ethiosat listing)

  • Frequency: 11105 H
  • SR/FEC: 45000 5/6 (or sometimes listed as 2/3)
  • System: DVB-S2/QPSK
  • Video PID: 63
  • Audio PID: 65 (Amharic)
  • PCR: 63 (typically follows the video PID)
  • SID: 6125
  • Format: MPEG-4/HD

Secondary/SD listing (also on Ethiosat)

  • Frequency: 11544 H (or nearby 11545 H in some lists)
  • SR/FEC: 45000 5/6
  • Video PID: 33
  • Audio PID: 34 (Amharic)
  • PCR: 33
  • SID: 6414
  • Format: MPEG-2

Other notes

  • There is also a listing on NSS-12 West Hemi beam around 3855 L (DVB-S2/QPSK, 4440 2/3) with Video 33 / Audio 34 / PCR 33 (HD).
  • PIDs and frequencies can change; always rescan or check with a current spectrum analyzer / blind scan on your receiver.
  • Sources confirming these include sattvinfo.net, FlySat, and KingOfSat listings for NSS-12/Ethiosat.

Use the 11105 H parameters with Video 63 / Audio 65 / PCR 63 for the main Ethiosat HD feed.

 

Other reported / secondary frequencies on NSS-12

  • 11545 H – Symbol Rate 30000 (or 45000 in some lists), FEC 5/6 – also carries Walta TV (sometimes listed as HD or SD).
  • C-band (West Hemi beam): 3855 L (Left circular), Symbol Rate 4440, FEC 2/3, DVB-S2/QPSK, HD MPEG-4 – noted as active again after temporary changes in early 2025.

Other satellites (for reference)

  • Eutelsat 8 West B (8°W): 11512 V, Symbol Rate 27500, FEC 7/8.
  • Older/alternative mentions include other Ku-band positions, but NSS-12 / EthioSat is the primary platform for Ethiopian viewers.

Tips:
Use a Universal Ku-band LNB (LO 9750/10600). Blind scan or manual scan the 11105 H 45000 transponder for the cleanest results. Parameters can shift occasionally — check FlySat or local Ethiopian frequency sites for the absolute newest changes.
