eetaylog Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 just read this. surely its not possible? didnt think aerials would be able to cope with the bandwidth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mykez69 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 might be able to handle it, when all these old fashioned noobs get with the times, and get digital then analogue will be switched off thus giving more signal strengths for digital so hd might work! sounds funky!!

smithyandco Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Granada is in the process of being shut down... Kept getting messages on ordinary telly in hostpital urging me to upgrade to Freeview at least... ...Why? I have Sky+ at home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gadge Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I dont think anything on TV is ever broadcast higher then 720p. The Tv is then responsible for uprating the signal. I suppose this is the upcoming DVB-T2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwd Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Seriously, how good can a TV picture get? Seems like a rip off at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
