The first digital broadcast services in Japan by broadcast satellite (BS) will commence on December 1, 2000. Two major events, the Okinawa Summit in July and the Sydney Olympic Games in September, will be broadcast using an experimental signal before regular services start. In addition to NHK and WOWOW, six new broadcasters will participate in providing these BS digital broadcasting services. Their services will be mainly based on high-definition television (HDTV) services and data broadcasting services. We have developed two types of BS digital receivers: a BS digital tuner (TT-D2000) and a digital HDTV set (32D2000, 36D2000). These receivers meet the digital BS specifications and have a variety of original features.
