Japanese 'NHKWORLD' HD channel 209 on Freesat
A recent retune has added an unexpected new HD channel: NHKWORLD - as Channel
209 - which appears to be (after a few quick glimpses) a Japanese version of a cross between BBC World News and CNN News. Is it some kind of experimental channel? -- /\/\aurice (Replace "nomail.afraid" by "bcs" to reply by email)

On HD STBs it appears at 209 instead of the SD version of NHKWORLD which appears on SD STBs. The related website is: http://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/ -- Peter Duncanson (in uk.tech.digital-tv)

The HD version of NHKWORLD was not put into the EPG until after CH4 HD arrived. Before that Ch 209 was NHKWORLD SD only. -- Peter Duncanson (in uk.tech.digital-tv)
