 ARABSAT BADR-4 Is Better For RTI ... Bigger Appetites Can Enjoy On A Smaller Dish


[SatNews]  RTI is now offered across the Middle East, North Africa and Europe via ARABSAT's coverage.

BADR-4 is the agreement between RTI and Arabsat. The agreement gives African and Middle Eastern audiences the opportunity to watch RTI via the minimum dish size.

We are thrilled to bring RTI to our viewers to enjoy a very original and native attractive African content. ARABSAT viewers across the Middle East and North Africa will receive RTI combined with an extensive offering and wide varieties of the prime Free-To-Air international and regional news channel on ARABSAT hotspot at 26 degrees E .”
