RTE on freesat

[captainjim]

probably not being broadcast in this area yet,not too clear when it will happen

RTE digital has been transmitting for at least the last ten months from Holywell Hill near Derry. The picture is very good but you will need an mpeg4 terrestrial receiver to see it. TV3 has been off air (digitally) from there for a couple of months now, just a test card showing, but remember these are only trials at the moment, so you wil need to be patient, they won't be rushed.
In fact I am going to wait until 2012 and get a DVB-T2 which will receive Freeview HD/SD and RTE's mpeg 4 output, I am waiting for the Humax T2 PVR, which will cover all bases terrestially.

Got a new Sony Saorview approved tv yesterday - picked up a rabbits ears in Argos this evening and the DTT is coming in quite strong. No need for an external aerial here in Dublin. RTE 2 HD looks quite nice.
