I once got spammed by Rede Globo for the Brazillian version of "Big

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).
