How to get 1500 satellite channels from 100 countries

Lee Si-kap is a farmer in rural South Korea. Now just because I said he was a farmer, you’re probably thinking “Oh this is some backwards hick that hasn’t even heard of television.” WRONG! Not only does Lee have television, he gets a whopping 1500 satellite channels from over 100 countries, including Canada (yes, they have TV in Canada. Who knew?)

How does he do it? By using a lot of big satellite dishes. And by “a lot” I mean 85 of them, and by “big” I mean 16 feet in diameter.
