[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 1103034, member: 330868"] Interesting! I didn't know that the Netherlands Antilles actually got European Dutch TV at all. When I was in Sint Maarten a couple of years ago, I scanned the DVB-T and there you just get BVN as the Dutch language option (along with some encrypted pay channels, ABC, CBS, FOX and NBC HD Miami versions unencrypted, a bad 60Hz conversion of Guadeloupe La 1ère, and France 2-5/Guadeloupe La 1ère in European standard 50Hz from the French part of the island), but looking at the website for FLOW (cable provider) in Curaçao, sure enough there's NPO1, NPO2 and NPO3 in HD, with timeshift versions also available! This gets there by fibre then? I know the French use Intelsat 35e to get France Télévisions to the Caribbean, bizarrely including the local La 1ère channels, which I think are actually linked back from the local studios to Paris by fibre and then played out and transmitted from there over the satellite link! France 2-5 get timeshifted by 5 hours so that programmes go out at the same time. The French satellite link also includes France Inter for French Antilles FM transmitters, and contains the RDS data (identical to on 5°W) which gets transmitted. [/QUOTE]
