Having read this thread it seems like a good idea for Freeview, or a Freeview-like service, and the mobile phone companies (and anyone else?) to share the same signals, if they all want to broadcast the Freeview channels.

It's been said that this is being discussed for "5G", but what about the interim? So I have a question.....

From a technical, or technological, point of view, can the mobile phone companies add Freeview to current mobile phones?

Q6. According to Wikipedia, "Ferryside television relay station" continued to broadcast "Analogue BBC Two Wales" until "August 2009". Care to clarify?

Q17. It's interesting to see that B.B.C. costs nearly double I.T.V.!

Hannington could also be possible in Lower Bourne. It was when it was analogue!

1. Moore's Law is predicted to end, soon-ish.

2. Freeview hasn't changed its logo. It has announced the new logo for the new connected Freeview, which starts later this year.

MikeP: The trouble is, when one "expert" disagrees with another "expert" it PROVES that one, or both, were never experts in the first place!

MikeB: I agree. You're actually making my point, but in much more detail.

Actually, I was making two points. One, people who claim to be experts, but aren't. Two, people who are experts, but over-reach themselves and make mistakes, or abuse their position to con others into doing what they want. I believe the last part was John Martin's original point.

Or is that three points? Obviously I'm not an expert in counting. Even though I claim to be!
