NHK World

Supposedly we could get NHK World in high-definition for free with a dish and HD tuner. Hmm.

Requirements: an LNB ("low noise block") converter, a satellite dish (2.5m-6m diameter), and a digital tuner.

IS-9 satellite, 4040 MHz, 26.59 Mbaud, FEC=1/2, polarization H. Azimuth and elevation are given, but for locations in South America. I suppose there're probably some ways to get more information about how to tune IS-9.

Speaking of which, there's some information on IS-9 itself on SatBeams as well as a channel list there and on LyngSat also.
