The international version of Spain's national public broadcaster TVE has ditched Hispasat's transmissions in favour of solely using its Eutelsat-Hot Bird position at 13º East where it has also transmitted over the past few years.

TVE's 24-hour news channel Canal 24 Horas has also left Hispasat and is only transmitting from the Hot Bird position.

The reason for TVE's satellite channels leaving Spain's satellite system is to concentrate its international programming on just one satellite system.
