Untitled[edit]

Whoever (collectively) wrote this article has spent too much time with PowerPoint. May I humbly suggest rewording so it reads more like a descriptive article than a seminar? Sadly I don't have time myself to go through the whole thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by WikiPhu (talk • contribs) 12:54, 10 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This really needs tidying up - it's been obvious for at least FOUR years that NZ is not going to continue VHF broadcasting; in fact all VHF will be turned off by the end of 2013. 202.124.96.21 (talk) 09:59, 28 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Historical Development in NZ[edit]

In popular culture, there is a TV series "50 Years of New Zealand Television" that covers in Episode 1 some of the early difficulties of getting TV broadcasting started in NZ, but with no coverage at all with respect to Frequency Allocation.

New Zealand for all practical purposes did not get television broadcasting of any kind until around 1960, when a Pay TV system was allowed to operate in Auckland.

The existing documentries on TV devlopment in NZ don't cover Frequency Allocation

Edits to "The Number of Digital Channels" in a state by 59.101.222.252 & 106.68.159.124 in March/April 2017[edit]

I do not wish to "bite" the newcomers, and acknowledge that these comments were made in good faith; however...

"The tables are incorrect if they include a Ch.12 in Australia's analogue VHF system. There were 13 VHF channels but they were numbered 0,1,2,3,4,5,5a,6,7,8,9,10 and 11. When TV here started on 9 September 1956, there were only 10 channels, but due to demand, three extra channels were created, they being Ch.0*, 5a and 11. Ch.0 was badly affected by atmospheric conditions(storms etc., as well as interference by electrical devices such as motors(electric drills & such). Any station, such as Station ATV-Melbourne or Station TVQ-Brisbane, for instance, got the "booby prize" when allocated this channel. I realize this is in the wrong spot but the point is nonetheless valid(added by Neil Forbes)"

Whilst I agree that the tables need to be updated (which is on my "to do list"), the comments added are quite incorrect in the context of this section (the table specifically talks about digital allocation, not analogue allocation), and I have removed them and placed it here for reference. To clarify, channel 12 was added to the VHF High band by the Australian regulator, and the corresponding frequency allocation can be seen by the table higher in the article. ^[1] Adamm (talk • contribs) 01:50, 1 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
