Out of interest, what exactly would that be for? Is it a delay of the Today show for Perth?

Could it be a pre-recorded intro for the local news? Do they have local news on the weekend?

They were running the Today Show live over Satellite yesterday morning for the special NRL match in Brisbane, it was the live show but with all the slates and directors/producers audios added in.

Bit off topic, but how big is your dish for KU?

2 Likes

90cm, My dish seems to do alright but struggles a bit with Is19 here in Melbourne, the Enc ODS feeds lock for about 3 seconds then drop out for me but when the Enc ODS feeds on those transponders get replaced with other feeds I can get those stronger for some reason.
