On Tuesday (July 2nd), the South Korean Unified Ministry said that the external transmission channels of North Korea ’s CCTV and North Korea’ s Central Broadcasting Station have been transferred from Chinese satellites to Russian satellites.At present, South Korean media and government agencies cannot receive signals through Chinese satellites and refer to poor signal quality received by Russian satellites.
Yonhap News Agency reported that according to the global satellite TV and radio data information website LYNGSAT, official media such as North Korea CCTV changed from June 20 to use the Russian satellite Express 103 to transmit programs.From the early morning of Monday (1st), South Korea has been unable to receive the Korean signal by the Chinese "Zhongxing 12" communication satellite used by the Korean media before.
Officials from the Ministry of Unification of South Korea said that North Korea stopped Chinese satellites and switched to Russian satellites to transmit programs, and South Korea could not receive signals because of this. It is reported that the Korean media programs currently transmitted through Russian satellites have caused poor painting and sound stuck due to frequency interference.
According to analysis, North Korea switched to Russian satellites or the life span of the satellite of the "Zhongxing 12" is about to expire.The "Zhongxing 12" satellite launched in 2012 with a working life of 15 years. In addition, considering that the relations between North and Russia are in the honeymoon period, North Korea's use of Russian satellites to some extent reflects North Korea's willingness to strengthen cooperation with Russia to a certain extent.
