Digital TV

Saturday 13th August 2011.
Moored at Wheaton Aston.

The Digital TV signal is brilliant here, we even have the HD channels through our little Omnimax aerial despite being in a shallow cutting and surrounded by trees, our new television has a built in HD decoder so no extra boxes required, at Kings Bromley Marina which is further south we have Digital but the signal is not powerful enough for HD, it is due to be boosted to full strength next month.

Apparently the Digital switch over started in the north and is progressing south which is unusual as thing normally start in the south and then go north before they run out of money once past halfway.

Short blog today as it's 5 o'clock, our visitors have arrived and we are going over the pub.

PS.  Back from the Hartley Arms, the food ( and Bank's Bitter ) was so good and well priced that we may be going back tomorrow for Sunday Lunch.
