The New Zealand Herald gives us an incredible example of "Kiwi ingenuity".  A volunteer, Ken Jones, for the station, 45 South (UHF channel 41), used a $10 (I presume this is 10 New Zealand Dollars) to create a satellite dish that would transmit the startup television station's signal.  A commerical link would have cost $20,000.  The wok originally even had the handle still attached when it was first put up.
