RTL launches new channel
With the new channel Nitro, set to launch on April 1, RTL is launching a new free-to-air TV channel focused on feature films and TV series.
The new channels will show premieres and repeats of feature films and productions from the crime and sitcom genres. Right at the start, free TV premieres such as the U.S. sitcom "Modern Family," the series "Nurse Jackie" and the crime series "Chase" will be on the schedule. RTL Nitro's programming can be received free of charge with a digital satellite receiver via Astra 19° on the frequency 12188 MHz (horizontal). According to O-ton.ch, it is not yet clear when and whether the channel will also be available on Swiss cable networks and Swisscom TV.
