Hi Andrew,

Yes TDT is owned or part owned
by Win and Southern Cross,
using a frequency previously used by TAS TV.

Win of course is affiliated with 9
,while Southern Cross is affiliated with 7.

Neither of those seem particularly interested
in getting more of the pretend network ,
Channel 10's shows into the state .

The only way ONE HD is going to get transmitted
in Tasmania is from Federal Intervention and
there are moves at the Senate Level on that.

Viewers can assist by making their
dissatisfaction known to the sponsors and
advertisers of ONE HD.

If members of this group would like to join
a campaign for better television coverage across
Australia, please feel free to email me.

Terry
