    Well, Direct TV and Dish Network have satellites all over the world. All networks transmit to the same satellites we use for American broadcasts....Soldiers in Iraq recieve the American broadcasts the same way that Indians and Hispanics can recieve India-TV or Mexico-TV....their satellite box has been programmed to recieve those signals. Since the signals are Digital, they just send the video and audio, and the box provides the sync signal to operate the TV, whether it's an NTSC, Secam or PAL TV.

    Source(s): 24 years servicing Televisions, also a lot of my customers have satellite broadcasts from various other countries....I've seen India TV and Mexican TV on satellite mostly, but have seen Asian TV too......
