Nothing terribly special about this channel on its own. Just a collection of videos that I've built up over time that I feel I can share. Maybe my most noted one is showing when Ceefax met its end in 2012 :(
To stop spam, trolls & those only interested in flame wars, I moderate all comments for my videos in advance. Sorry it's taken some time for some perfectly good comments to get published, but they do go public eventually!
WHY is it that the transmitters in the 6 counties get to have at least six multiplexes (including one that is DVB-T2) yet the transmitters in the 26 counties can only have two DVB-T multiplexes? How is that in any way considered to be fair?! It just ISN'T!

Yeah I've always felt as though the transmitters in those 6 counties were way more feature rich and all round much better compared to the transmitters in the other 26 counties which only have two DVB-T multiplexes in use.
Most of those channels you mention were never available on Freeview. In addition Now 80's, TinyPop & PopMax are/were not on multiplexes I could receive at my home location at the time this was recorded.
@@lawhec Weird Where is BBC4 HD, BBC NEWS HD, Channel 4+1 HD, 4SEVEN HD, CBS REALITY +1, CBS JUSTICE +1, PICK +1, 5STAR +1, 5USA +1, QVC HD, QVC BEAUTY HD, RT HD, QUEST HD & TJC HD Should be there
NVTV is only available on Freeview/terrestrially in around Belfast city using a very directional transmitting aerial on Divis pointing eastwards, I'm located around 80km west of Divis so no chance of receiving them here. All channels received in this video, as mentioned at the start as well as in the description, are received from either Brougher Mountain (Freeview) or Truskmore (Saorview).
Interesting bandscan. My last visit to Brisbane was way back in august 1973, before FM ever started. Also, your portable radio is quite impressive, especially including the RDS display.
Sorry for only replying now, but thanks for the comment. The radio is pretty decent for a portable on FM, though another portable radio I had with me, the Eton E5, is perhaps a tad more sensitive on reception. The main reason for using the XHDATA D-808 here was for the RDS & signal strength/SNR displays, the E5 doesn't have RDS and just has a rudimentary 5-level LCD signal strength display.
Nice to see a fellow sw listener from NI. I use an Eton G3 with 40ft of speaker wire with a crocodile clip on the antenna I'm in armagh. I've had that station a few times. At about tea time try 12065khz that's radio Australia it should come in for you. I also run a station called radio northern Ireland using channel 292's transmitter in Germany. Have a good one. 73
I never knew ceefax was around for so long, or the you guys across the pond switched over so late. my GameGear's analog tuner hasn't worked on it's own for years now over here. Ceefax looked so dated the first time I saw it I thought the service must have met the same fat as SegaNet, Sega Channel, Satellite, RAND net, the original Xbox Live, ect, in the mid 90's.
Hi i managed to get my RTE set up but since the switch over i have lost channels i previously had eg quest, five fiveue film4 and music channels, about 20 in all, im the same transmitter as you, have you had this problem?
Got to be. If the incoming feed from the BBC stopped, then another vision something kicked in at the transmitter, hence the unchanged Ceefax graphic, until it properly closed.
