I think I expressed the opinion that "Big Brother" was much improved by the viewer's not being able to understand the language. I suspect the same might be true of TV from the DPRK. Do you really want to know that the song being played is entitled "All Glory to the Dear Leader, Kim Jong-Il and the Eternal President of the DPRK, the Great Leader Comrade Kim Il-Sung"? Do you want to be able to understand a three hour lecture on the Juche Idea? Much better to just let it roll over you like some free-form scat poetry. Hey, nobody in America watches TV anyway, they just have it on as background. It's a white light and noise show. If DPRK TV beamed to America, people would watch for curiosity value, then it would blend into the background. Brenda, does the DPRK broadcast TV on South Korean channel(s)? Out of all the times I've scanned the cable channels, I've never seen it. The ROK still jams DPRK MW broadcasts on at least two frequencies that I know of, 810 and 1080 KHz. There are likely others as well, since there are at least 5 more jammers out there, but I can only verify these two as coming from the ROK. We were up near Panmunjum a couple weeks ago, and out of curiosity I tuned in to those to see how strong the (DPRK) jammers were up there. To my surprise, they were barely audible.. they were coming from the SOUTH. The audio on the DPRK MW signals was truly terrible. Sounded worse than US AM after the bandwidth got narrowed for IBOC.. (sounds like a telephone with a wadded up handkerchief over the receiver). |
