V-me: PBS en Espaņol

Couple of months ago, I have noticed that one of PBS feeds on AMC3, 12180 Ver., is totally dedicated to Spanish - speaking channel "V me".
Now I see it is also available on DishNetwork channel 9414 as a public interest channel.
Programming is nice looking, even I don't understand the language quite well.
Must be available from DirecTV too, I think.
So, enjoy this good quality channel!

I noticed that the Spanish channels usually have better quality/bit rate than US ones. Switching between E* and FTA while watching the Braves-Mets game was interesting...

Interesting. I have that 12180 mux on every day, but usually watch ch 11,17, and 19. I never noticed that one in spanish. Every time I've stepped through it, I either didn't have the audio on, or stepped through it so fast that I never heard the audio. What kind of programming is on it? I know of some other spanish PBS programming from another source, but it was all kids programming. Although if there is any kids programming on the "V me" channel, perhaps that is the source of the other stuff I saw.
