The ABC1 thread

no it doesnt ,only hight price boxes do

A barker has appeared from 6am this morning on channel 15. The logo is this ABC1 Logo and the barker has a light blue background and some slightly darker blue squares and it says channel 15 - launches mon 27th sept 2004. And to be honest it looks like something from powerpoint

yep, saw it this morning. Looks awful.

Hey look, it lauches a day before my birthday.

That's not a barker then, just a caption. A barker is a moving promo. To be honest, I don't want to scan to get this on my box, otherwise I'll have all the TUTV channels clogging it up.

Typical it launches the day I start University and I don't think I can recieve FreeView on campus.

On my TV we can edit the channel lists and delete channels.

Here we go... (for those who don't have DTT, aren't near a DTT box, are remotely interested!). Must say, I'm quite excited about having an abc-branded channel in my living room, but we'll see...!

WE NOW HAVE THE ABC1 LINEUP

Visit http://www.digilook.net/launch_schedule.htm to view the schedule.
I guess the times are odd because they haven't got any commercials on the channel for atleast 6 months but at least this is a start of a brand new, entertainment channel for Freeview. There is light at the end of the tunnel as they say.

The line-up needs sorting out i think, there's only 3 shows im interested in on the schedule and they're the sitcoms!.

Well, there's no ABC1 here in Wales (well, for me anyway). I just rescanned my box and Channel 15 has now completely disappeared. Some of the programmes on that lineup don't look too bad really, I was looking forward to them.

It would be great to see Ellen and Moonlighting again, Nurses and Empty Nest were linked with The Golden Girls, let's hope that pops up on there soon.

Shame the channel doesn't run from 1800 instead, it looks ten times better then FTN.
