Digital TV In Australia

** I still cannot find any true "digital antennas" on sale in Sydney.

That is, one that covers channels 6 - 12 VHF and 28 - 69 UHF - eg
Hills have them in their trade only catalogue.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a digital antenna?


** Must have wanked himself completely blind.

LOL

Perhaps, i do wank a lot.

You still have not answered my question.

** It follows the two words " That is, ... "

Only a chronic, alcoholic, autistic idiot would miss it over and over.

It shows.

Digital is vhf

** Shame about SBS on UHF 34.

And all of rural Australia.


In reality:

ABC uses analogue Ch 12 for SD, HD and ABC2.

Channel 7 uses analogue Ch 6 for SD and HD.

Channel 9 uses analogue Ch 8 for SD and HD.

Channel 10 uses analogue Ch 11 for SD and HD.

SBS uses analogue Ch 34 for SD, HD and SBS 2.

( Channel 31 is an analogue signal only )

Each old analogue channel can accommodate 2 x SD and 1 x HD signal
simultaneously.

Rural Australia uses UHF for all channels.

Well by now I could have googled it, but it really does not have any
significance to me. Please excuse the fact that I am a cable tv
subscriber and have no idea of what free to air tv channels are these
days. All mine come down a cable. I can forgive a failed roadie
pensioner like yourself for not understanding how cable tv works cause
I know you cant afford it. You could always get some idea by looking
at www.foxtel.com.au

Matchmaster have digital only models

Digital is vhf
Is it? I thougt aerials were dependant on carrier frequency, not the content
of the carrier. Must have slept through that lesson at tech.
 
signal is not good enough on ANY to get teletext which I used to use all
the time when I spent some time in Sydney.
Loosing teletext is a small price to pay to be out of Sydney.

I was told the other day by a supplier of antennas that digital will
not work on ribbon cable!

We have MAJOR issues picking up the analogue tv service in our area, so
what chance has digital got in such a situation. I would imagine it
would have a signal strength requirement like satellite services, where
it has to have a minimum signal before it can display its picture etc.
We have ABC with fuzz, Prime (7) in black and white, SBS depends on the
weather, NBN (9) drops in and out as it pleases and Southern Star (10)
is good some nights and non existent on other nights. We have a masthead
booster and two antennas (one uhf and the other has both bands) so all
according to the twits in this area installing them should be fine. Over
the road from us can't get normal FTA tv because of the powerlines and
both beside and behind us have the same as us. The olds a few hundred
metres away need three antennas to get a 1/2 decent service and the
signal is not good enough on ANY to get teletext which I used to use all
the time when I spent some time in Sydney.

Some info may be of interest in this document.

http://www.dba.org.au/uploads/templates/files/DBA_Installing_DTTB_Basic_Domestic_Systems.pdf

Also have a look here, particularly the last couple of sentences.

http://www.avcomm.com.au/page4uam.htm

In short, if your analogue reception is so poor or non-existent, then
digital may not work for you. However if you haven't already, you
should also look over the DBA website, particularly the link re when
is digital coming to your area. You may get satisfactory reception
from another site.
I also forgot to mention, our next closest transmission site from Middle
Brother (north Taree) is Newcastle, some 200km away.

I got digital setup done at Smiths Lake up on 5 meter pole.
You should be able to do similar, just use higher pole maybe?
