I mostly watch TV via VF TV but just switched to the antenna input of my Samsung TV and noticed the signal was missing from TV1 and TV2. All other Freeview channels seemed fine, and a pile of Samsung Pass channels have been added.

 

I thought the frequencies may have changed, so I ran the Autotune function, but TV1 and TV2 no longer appear in the list.

 

I can't believe they would have been dropped from Mount Kaukau, but can't think of another explanation.

 

 

 

Any thoughts please?

 

 

 

Cheers,

 

Pete.

Has your aerial moved since you last used it? Is it pointing in the same direction as other neighbours?

Just checked on our TV and all Freeview channels are present and we are taking the feed from Kaukau. Do you have the antenna in the correct orientation for Kaukau?





Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

No, TV1 and TV2 are not being broadcast any more.  Their names changed some time ago to TVNZ 1 and TVNZ 2.

Thanks for the confirmation. Looks like it might be an aerial issue then - probably not surprising after some of the weather lately.

 

Cheers,
Pete.

Based on the content I'm seeing, I'd say they are transmitting from Mt Bullbull.
