Talk:Radio jamming in Korea

message: Hello. I'm the original author of this Wikipedia article 'Radio jamming in Korea'. Thanks for your proper criticism and revision.
Actually, I have already known the North Korean radio frequencies and the particular telly channels from North Korea. However, due to National Security Law in my country amd being a South Korean national, I couldn't provide such information.
In those parts, I think some non-Korean people have added some details, concerning North Korean broadcasts.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Finefir2001 (talk • contribs) 12:40, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I think the expression According to National Security Law in South Korea, it is illegal to tune into or publish frequencies of North Korean broadcasts. seems to be partially incorrect(?).
Actually, publishing or mentioning frequencies (and television channels) of North Korean broadcasters is reportedly still illegal.
However, now, I heard that one who did simple (and exclusive to an individual listener) reception of North Korean broadcast wouln't be actually punished (In the past, however, when (anti-North Korean) authoritarian regimes had controlled my country, before the democratisation as early as 1987, this behaviour used to be apparently punishable.). This may be due to the South Korea's sunshine policy recently. I have ever heard the news that the South Korean government would plan to allow their citizens to watch the North Korean satellite televison; whether the plan has been carried out is uncertain now. In reality, a South Korean broadcaster represents a regular TV programme which quotes videos from the satellite TV.
Nevertheless, collective or public listening, public rebroadcasting via public amp devices (at school, stations, etc), and (distribution of) recording(s) of North Korean broadcasts is apparently a criminal offence in my country.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.141.233.131 (talk) 13:28, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

message: The South Korean transmission on 972 kHz (KBS Radio Korean Ethnicity) seems to be recently affected 'jamming' signals from the North. I noticed this when I turned on my portable radio outdoors.
This would require more research... If the jamming activity is confirmed 'consistent', I will reflect it on this Wikipedia article  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Finefir2001 (talk • contribs) 01:16, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Hello...
I deleted the DPRK frequencies, which were added by non-ROK editors (of course, not me), in this article, since the history records before September 2007 have been deleted and those world could be subject to the South Korean law and being a South Korean national. (I am NEVER pro-North Korean because I am a right-wing libertarian; I dislike communism.)
For non-South Korean nationals (like Americans, Brits, etc), if you decided to mention the frequencies again, please cite that the addtion editor is not a South Korean (ROK) citizen (if you don't do this, I will delete them again). 
(WARNING: This comment DOES NEVER incite some people to publicise the frequencies in necessity.)
: Sorry, I misunderstood that the records were deleted. Suit yourself (because I have no legal right to even restore the relevant frequencies).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Finefir2001 (talk • contribs) 09:09, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

message: There was a copy-edit tag on this article I noticed while removing some vandalism.  I went through and did the copy editing.  I hope I did not create any erroneous statements with my changes.  Those knowledgable on the subject should review the article and correct anything I may have made wrong, or mention it here if you would prefer that I fixed it myself.  I will be watching this article for a while.
I put a need citations tag on the article.  This is not a doubt of the truth of any of the statements, but merely Wikipedia policy that we want to have a reference to some third party document that says the same thing.  Then readers can go check (if they want to) and make sure that we are not making things up ourselves.  I'm sure there must be some sources available on the web that could be cited.  Newspaper mentions of jammed frequencies, the South Korean law against listening to the North, etc.  If anyone knows of appropriate sources it would be good to include them.  They should be in English if at all possible, but if no English sources can be found they can be in another language like Korean.  Loren.wilton (talk) 01:38, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for your comment. Actually, I would say it could be a bit harder to cite the references because most of the content in the article comes from my knowledge or from my former fellow DXers in South Korea. Finefir2001 (talk) 12:01, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

message: I have memories on certain programmes on KBS Radio. When I was just a little boy (just before the 2000 declaration -- roughly between 1998 and 1999), I used to listen to the programmes on KBS Radio 1 (on 711 kHz MW, 97.3 MHz FM) at midnight.
Those programmes were to condemn the North Korean regime and promote some North Koreans (especially officials or officers) to flee to South Korea. One of the programmes which triggered my interest was 'To the executive members of the (North Korea's Communist) Labour Party'. The condemn in the programme sounded interesting to me...
After the declaration, those programmes disappered. And then several ordinary programmes (e.g. discussion programme on current affairs) took the place of them.  Finefir2001 (talk) 16:09, 22 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Since it's illegal for North Koreans to listen to anything other than state-run radio, all legal radio receivers are sold fixed so they can play only channels approved by the government
I understand there are two state run networks (PBS and KCBS) in North Korea. How do North Korean radio listeners switch between the stations if their tuning dials are sealed ? 86.112.238.12 (talk) 17:27, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: maybe something like a switch, most likely a toggle switch Superworms (talk) 19:31, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  For reference, I'd like to say something. PBS is intended for South Korean listeners, while KCBS is a domestic channel. Finefir2001 (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 14:42, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

message: The article mentions that DMB transmissions cause difficulties for many South Korean viewers attempting to watch North Korean television. Were DMB  the frequencies deliberatly chosen in oder to cause such interference or is it just a coincidence ? 213.40.122.204 (talk) 12:46, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Good question and also what is the situation for people living close to the border ? Do the DMB signals cause any interference to North Korean TV for viewers within North Korea and/or are there places in South Korea where its difficult/impossible to get DMB because of interference from North Korean TV ??? 86.112.82.85 (talk) 20:01, 30 October 2010 (UTC)
