A Eutelsat satellite at 36°E providing direct-to-home broadcasting for Russia and Eastern Europe. The 36°E position is Russia's primary satellite television neighborhood — millions of Russian households have their dishes aimed at this slot, receiving NTV+, Tricolor, and hundreds of Russian and international channels. Eutelsat-36B provides the Ku-band capacity that makes Russian DTH possible at a scale unmatched by Russian domestic satellite operators.
