It’s possible to drag in 10 Digital from Swan Hill (Goschen Transmitter) in Ouyen, albeit not very reliably. Harder in Robinvale though. May as well go Internet there.

It hasn’t appeared on my TV I have my antenna pointed towards the Ouyen transmitter which is 1kms from my house the site is located at the Optus site near the hospital transmitting at a power of 4kw, The transmitter out at Walpeup gets the signal from Ouyen there digital service was switched on a few days after ours as testing from our transmitters to theirs had to be done.

If anyone can be bothered, just screen record The Sunday Project up until the point it cuts off then go to a black screen and you can upload that to YouTube as a high quality version of the shutdown

For the true authenic shutdown experience, a few seconds of black screen needs to be added on the end, and then the ā€œNo signalā€ message.

ā€œLike MDT there are a number of joint ventures around Australia that will be running on a knife’s edge and TDT is no exception,ā€ they said.
