I have to dispute this claim of being able to receive this KBS channel over-the-air. I have a digital tuner (ATSC) flat-screen and a fairly powerful VHF/UHF antenna on a twelve foot mast. I live in Queens, NY which is about 16 miles from the Newton, NJ transmitter. I've set my tuner to scan a number of times. I can get channel 63 from Newton, NJ and on a good day I get a decent signal. As far as I can tell, there is no channel 63.5 or 63-5 for WMBC. The channel scanner doesn't detect it and I can't manually tune it either. I spent about an hour fiddling around and came up with a blank. I think the scanning detected surrounding channels 60 and 66, but there was nothing detectable in-between except for channel 63 which had no substations. Channel 63 is an analog signal. My setup pulled dozens of other stations, both digital HD and analog.

So unless somebody on this forum has seen this 63.5 KBS WMBC station or knows somebody that has, using an over-the-air antenna, I really have my doubts this is true. I'm sure my setup would have detected something unless they're transmitting a really weak signal. Maybe it's possible they haven't started broadcasting that digital signal yet.

Please let me know or offer me any other suggestions.

boo new york and new jersey.
come to the west coasttt.

When will this go ALL around the US?

Synopsis
Jan Di is an average girl whose family owns a dry cleaning store located near the luxurious and well known Shin Hwa College. Jan Di meets the four richest and most spoiled boys known as the F4. After saving a boy from jumping off the roof of Shinhwa High School, she is admitted into the school on a swimming scholarship. Jan Di tries to avoid confrontation with the F4 at all cost because she knows what happens to those that stand against them. However, when Jan Di's friend, Oh Min Ji, accidentally gets ice cream on the leader of the F4's shoes, she's forced to declare war on the leader of the F4, Goo Joon Pyo.

oh no thats not fair,why cant people receive kbs world for free world wide.consider yourself lucky

HATEFUL BUT ONCE AGAIN KBS WORLD Wednesday Thursday

How can we clarify the true meaning of life?
Music has high and low notes and painting has bright and shadowy parts; living a life is just the same. This drama tells the story of marriage and family. No one can predict what’s going to happen in one’s life, and yet each of us all has his/her own stories and own matters. ‘Again, My Love’ will take a deep look into the stories of lives and untangle the complicated relationships.

cool but not really XD

cos i live in aust. && i wish they did this here !! :[[

california right (LA) WOOOO!

I have to pay for the dish network KBS world. ah. unfair world.

Ahh so thats why my cousin had KBS World. I was flipping through the channels at her house a few weeks and came upon KBS. I was wondering why she had that channel cuz she doesnt have the slightest interest in anything Korean haha.
