BBC Digital Widescreen Test Transmission

Tune to 12.461v on Add Channels on Sky and enjoy!

Interesting discussion here

Watching it takes me back. I was just 25 when I saw this for the first time.

BBC News 24 had the flags idents, BBC One News came from the blue virtual studio (except for Breakfast News), it was BBC Choice not BBC Three and not even BBC Four's predecessor, BBC Knowledge, had launched then.

How come time goes past so quickly?

I can't find anything?

It's not working for me. What are the rest of the frequency details please?

12.643 V 27.5 2/3 labelled as "54380" and "54381" worked for me on Sky, details from Digital Spy

Yes, it's a bit poor to only provide part of the information for something which is only available for a limited time!

What's it labeled as?

54381 and something similar to answer my own question.

I remember seeing some of this when SDN were testing their streams for the On Request service in 1999-2000

My apologies. Instructions as described above.

No problem.

This is much better than Peter Simon's programme on Bid.

Many thanks!

Same as sda - looks to be on two channels marked 54380 and 54381 - identical picture quality on both as far as I can tell...
