It's all a hunt for Intellectual Property, and Brazil has made many bad,
expensive decisions in this area.
Remember their "local source" computers while they banned PCs? About thrice
the price, 1/3 the power. But, hey! No intel chips.
And, who's to say that "Chinese modulation" will perform any better than
"chinese-made toys with lead-based paint" or "Chinese-made toothpaste with
anti-freeze as an inexpensive and poisonous sweetener" or "pet food where a
poison was substituted as an inexpensive substitute for wheat gluten at the
Chinese wheat gluten distributor."
Wasn't EIA-J a Japanese system that was promulgated at a time when Japanese
products were substandard?

Quite the Hyperbole, John.
The way I see it, the central planning states don't go with DVB, they invent
their own standard. (China and Brazil are two that come to mind.)
Cheers,
John
