	There two kind of VN TV.  The first is "VTV - Tho+`i Su+."
	orignaly broadcast from HaNoi, taped, and rebroadcast in
	the US by SCOLA (S1 channel 24 not transponder 24) for education
	purposes.  The program is 3-day old when it is rebroadcasted by
	SCOLA.  The second is various VN TV from different location in
	the US like LA, Orange County Houston (Not sure) ....  but mainly
	is Little Saigon TV, which is also known as KSCI-18 for people in
	LA and surrounding.  All this program is rebroadcasted by the
	International Channel (F4 channel 12).  Both of this tranmission
	are 4-Ghz (C-band).  The schedule are as followed:

	S1-24:	12:30am -  1:00am (Monday - Friday)

	F4-12:	 5:30am -  6:00am (Monday - Friday)
		 6:00pm -  6:30pm (Monday - Friday)
		 8:00am - 11:00am (Saturday)	90% confidence on this time
		There are other VN program during the daytime but
		I can't remember.

	Note: All times are Pacific.  Also other languages are
	      broadcast during other time.

	Ku-band birds has NBC, Canadian, NTU and other
	educational programs.  It's more popular in Europe
	where space is rare ;-).  Ku-band Dish size needs only
	be around 3-4 ft versus C-band ranging from 6-12 ft
	in diameter.

	If you have other question, let me know I might be able
	to answer not all but some of them.  You can also get
	some info from rec.video.satellite.
