Further update to the Freeview transmission loss in the Wairarapa.

TVNZ and MediaWorks services have been restored to full power.  Services on the Kordia multiplex are running at very low power so reception will be marginal at best.

Technicians have had to vacate the site, for their own health and safety, due to extremely high winds in the area.  Restoration activities will continue when the wind drops and Technicians can get to the site safely.

Further update to the Freeview transmission loss in the Wairarapa.

TVNZ and MediaWorks transmissions have been restored, although the MediaWorks transmitter is only working at half power.  The Kordia transmitter has suffered more substantial damage so their services remain off until technicians investigate.
