They are just moving to another transponder on 58w. The new freq is 4160 H 26590. It's been up for at least a few months.

Their web page only mentions the three Intelsat satellites that carry it on C Band. No mention of the Ku signal on 103w, so I'm guessing that won't change.

I could have sworn there was a thread about this a while ago... the C-band signal changed frequencies, and the Ku signal... is no longer on lyngsat it seems. It was unlisted for a long time, popped up on lyngsat, and has now been de-listed.

I think the ku-band signal is not from NHK. It's part of a feed for hotels programmed by another provider.
