International broadcasting in Japan is generally limited to signals generated by the publicly owned NHK World, which broadcasts television and radio programs overseas. A few other institutions originally based in Japan have carried Japanese programming overseas, though these are very limited and are generally not considered to be true "international" broadcasts.
AFN-Japan / ja:AFN (formerly Far East Network). U.S. military broadcast services, targeting U.S. military personnel stationed in Japan.
Fujisankei Communications International. Programming originates from Fuji TV of Japan, and targets Japanese audiences overseas, though the offices are located in New York, not Japan.
JJY / ja:JJY. Transmits primarily time signals (beeping noises), similar to WWV of the United States, and do not carry any broadcast programs in any language. Shortwave signals were used until March 2001, which made these broadcasts internationally available.
The MegaNet member FM radio stations in Fukuoka, Nagoya, Osaka and Tokyo. They usually broadcast music but in case of emergency they are prepared to broadcast public safety messages in some non-Japanese languages.
Radio Nikkei / ja:日経ラジオ社. Shortwave radio broadcasts (the radio signals reach overseas), however the target is Japanese listeners in Japan.
Shiokaze / ja:しおかぜ (放送) - Propaganda programs primarily targeting Japanese abductees in North Korea.
