Actually, I can think of a very good reason to encourage some
type of *sat news transmission. Central America is now well
covered by US television (I spent the last week in Belize
City, and there not being much else to do, watched the Cubbies
on WGN) transmissions. 

We could add many interesting folks in that region with a
one-way transmission with some form of low volume back-channel
for postings.
