MTV 1 is on channel 160, with MTV 2 on channel 161. Those
channels are available with our Americas Top 120 programming
package and above.
MTV is on lots of different channels provided by various
networks, and broadcast from lots of different satellites situated
over many different countries.
A local program guide might show the MTV channels available for
your system in your area.
Another way to find MTV channels is the scan all the channels
you can receive on your dish network, and then to make a note of
the satellite and channel numbers that your particular satellite
system has allocated to the MTV programs. On some systems you can
change the channel numbers individually so that all MTV channels
appear first, at the top of the list of all the channels receivable
from that satellite.
