for several years Mediaworks had The Edge The Rock and Radio Live at Ngarara which made a good monitor for power cuts . They were moved to another site over a year ago . So only Freeview now ( No radio )

There was a large blink in the lights in Otaki and Freeview went off at same time so once again I would say there is a power cut at Ngarara Road

LOL But its time someone installed a Diesel Generator at that site for backup . Power Cuts are very frequent event there . It is a nice still clear night , not even stormy !

Agreed about the generator I recall you mentioned that last time, vote Steve for Director of Kordia freeview or whoever can make that decision

I would like your help, in the event this happens again if someone could flick a text or High Importance Email when the area is not transmitting, this has been on one of my hot lists or some time as I am based up North. If you can email me or send a PM to my Freeviewforum inbox.

It will help update the Freeview Forum in realtime.
