Firstlight TV channel 26 - starting 17 September. www.firstlight.org.nz/
Also Channel 800 - test bars, no audio, could be Hawke's Bay TV Channel 51?

Yup, 26 on Te Aroha, on the Kordia mux. It's playing something at the moment (in 4:3) and doesn't just have test bars. 51 is an existing radio station on Te Aroha, and 800 doesn't do anything on my Sony TV.

It seems to be playing a nature loop. Very boring indeed.

Hawke's Bay Television is Channel 801, still "no service" message.
Channel 800 says "Program 1", also "no service" message.

HBTV (channel 800) on its own UHF channel 27. Weaker signal than others, probably from a different location (Mt Threave, not Mt Erin)
