Our local station, KTSF, broadcasts Korean programming (MBC America) on its digital sub channel. You think I will be able to catch this signal with a huge antenna? :puppydog:

For some reason, the web site said I needed the Death Star to pick up a LA signal in NorCal. Does anyone know the used price for one of these things? :hehe:

Ask Darth Vader :hehe:

First day for digital 18.2.... :victory:

Some oddball action drama is on: all the Japanese actors are speaking English, albeit broken English... With Japanese subtitles. :crazy:

EDIT: The program is Katana-Man: http://en.utbhollywood.com/program5/e-892.html

I guess everything's just trial programming for the moment...

This should go to Funny Videos thread.

From the description of Katana-man:

Hearing of this, Geroge Bash, the President of America, suggests to Japan that they speak English as their main language in an attempt to make Japan the 48th state of the United States.

:rofl:

Katana-Man is over now...

Now there's a documentary on anime and manga.

^ I hope you guys appreciate how lucky you are to even get that...

Anything is better than the almost nothing we get. Like, we get NHK news, in Japanese, no subtitles, at 5.25 am or 10.30pm :(

Now they're giving the weather.... 9C in Tokyo. :sweat:

So far, most of the programming has people speaking English or English narration... :victory:

They need to stream this on their website. I wouldn't leave the site.... well except to eat.... and maybe :shit: ....

I hear ya... I keep checking back on the station to see what's on.

Right now, they're showing a movie, but I've no idea what it is... And there's no subs. :puppydog:

EDIT: It just ended... It was a movie: http://en.utbhollywood.com/program5/e-894.html

Right now on digital 18.2: A cooking show, Your Japanese Kitchen hosted by Daniel Kahl ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daniel_Kahl ). :victory:

EDIT: They're making sardine burgers with fresh sardines, miso, onions, ginger... Interesting.

EDIT2: Making sliced asparagus salad with shoyu, wasabi, and mayonnaise now

EDIT3: NHK link: http://www.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/english/tv/kitchen/index.html
