SParker,
TV Japan has an English soundtrack for many of the programs on the "Free TV J" Blocks. TV Japan is available to everyone three or four times a day. All you need to do to hear the TV Japan English track when available is set the Alternate Audio on your receiver to Japanese. All the other channels will still be normal sound, but TV Japan will sometimes have simultaneous translations especially during the evening news (at 5 AM in Colorado).
