The numbers below 10,000 are C-Band (big dish) frequencies. So you'd need a 6 foot or bigger dish to get them. And the Madrid station you're looking to get, is at 3900V.

The numbers above 10,000 are Ku band (30" dish) frequencies. But this sat seems to be used for Dishnetwork and most all are scambled.

Sorry for the bad news.
Lol, everytime I think I understand something another thing always pops up. So if I got a dish greater than 6 foot, I could get the Madrid TV and all the goodies I'd want from say Telstar 5 right? I notice Telstar 5 is C band and has similar numbering (3800's and such) to Telstar 13.
