NHK World Leaving Satellite??

[Lone Gunman]

Just happened across this and there's a notification on the screen that says:

NHK WORLD TV is changing to a new system. Please access our webpage for information on how to contiue watching. http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/tv/howto/#tv

Anyone know whats up with that?

They are just moving to another transponder on 58w. The new freq is 4160 H 26590. It's been up for at least a few months.

won't affect any other satellites that it airing on?

Their web page only mentions the three Intelsat satellites that carry it on C Band. No mention of the Ku signal on 103w, so I'm guessing that won't change.

I could have sworn there was a thread about this a while ago... the C-band signal changed frequencies, and the Ku signal... is no longer on lyngsat it seems. It was unlisted for a long time, popped up on lyngsat, and has now been de-listed.

Still coming in just fine on 103*w bird.

I knew there was a thread about this before! No worries, sky not falling.

I think the ku-band signal is not from NHK. It's part of a feed for hotels programmed by another provider.
