[QUOTE="sacramento-singh, post: 60100, member: 5200"] Sat Sri Akal Why is that we Sikhs don't have a TV channel yet. In USA on dish network there are all kinds of religious channels. There is bunch of channels from Arab countries and they even have one from Pakistan. Media is the best tool if want to get your point across. Here in Sacramento i talked to one of the people at the Gurudwara about setting up an FM or Am radio station but he was not interested let alone TV station. I am very much interested in this project but alone i cannot do it. We need many volunteers and people with money. I do have some what experience in video and satellite communication. I have been looking into this for few months now. The best way to do this is via FTA (free to air)satellite. It is available in Europe, Asia and Americas, Africa and all of the Arab world. Customer do not need to subscribe to anything, so there is no monthly bill. They will purchase an antenna and receiver about $175.00 to $200.00. I would divide this into 4 Groups. Asian Group, Americas Group, Europe and Africa Group. We will need to set stations in those particular place and acquire or lease satellite transponders. We will need at least 4 satellite transponders for each Continent if we want to cover the whole globe. Each group will be responsible for their duties, acquiring funds etc for what ever group they are in. So where do we start? This project is not as easy as it sounds. Fir stable we need to come to an agreement and we need to have enough support so we can do this. Then we will apply for not profit institution. We need to acquire lots of funds and many many volunteers. I would start for here USA since i live here or if where ever sangat decides and have enough support. I would like to get at least one Representative from heavily populated places where Punjabi's or Sikhs are. For example i am in Central California in Sacramento and there are at least 7 Gurudwara's here. So that is a good are for one Representative.

Each month we will hold comity meetings. Each rep will be there and other who wish to be there, it might be reps group, family members or community members. What will comity do? First get enough support so we can have a comity Establish non profit institute. Get support from our congress. Make some guideline for the reps. Issue duties to reps Decide where this station is going to be Decide what kind of programing to broadcast Find media, Dramas, films, documentary, local and world news Hold meeting with other committees from other countries Etc. Dass had this idea for a while. This is basic sketch of what i had in my mind. If we follow these steps we could have not just one station but as many as we want. Money should not be an obstacle.
