Yes, but this is a rebroadcast by a third party, and not an official feed by NHK, hence it could go down at any time (though it has been there a while)

With 3.0 on the way, I think more OTA offerings will be available in the future. Like Portland, there are quite a few diginets that are not available. Comet also streams. Buzzr on the Roku, Charge streams.
Supposedly ATSC 3.0 signals carry further than the current standard, but that remains to be seen.
I haven't read the details, but the idea seems laughable. I just can't imagine any digital signal getting into areas that were on the fringe of the analog signals without raising the power way up.
I don't think they will carry further, but I do believe that they are supposed to be stronger in the areas they reach.
We would love to add ACC Network to our line up for all of our customers that are looking forward to its launch. I have submit a request on your behalf to our Programming Team for review. Keep an eye out for any updates of new channels added to our line up here Channel Updates on DISH | MyDISH | DISH Customer Support. - Jasmine D.
I would like to see more diginets like METV, Get TV, Bounce, Buzzr, Grit, etc. Many areas in the U.S. get poor OTA reception and not many diginets. They probably are not expensive to carry compared to so many other channels that get so many disputes. Would love to see Dish carry Antenna TV, THIS, Decades, RTV, Heroes and Icons, Movies, and a cable channel Aspire. All run lots of Classic TV fare. Many in my age group (70) love so many of the shows.
Those are really great suggestions! I will be happy to get those forwarded to our Programming Team as well.
We were able to recently add METV to our line up for our customers to enjoy! It is available in select markets as part of the Locals Pack. For customers that are not in those markets, METV is available on channel 247 in our America's Top 120 and higher packages. - Jasmine D.
Comet is on 289, but it looks terrible, even when stretched (and you have to stretch it for it to even be tolerable to watch)...
In normal mode, anything and everything on Comet looks vertically "squished", almost double pillar-boxed. If I stretch it once, the aspect ratio looks like normal does on any other (4:3) SD channel...
