La Siesta II (almost) enters the XXIth Century
April 7, 2008 | Author: Carlos
If you, like me, bought a brand new TV recently, you might have pressed the DIGITAL button on your remote and had a black screen staring back at you. Well, this has changed now and we all have something to cellebrate: our friendly TV technician has installed today the components needed to see the TDT (Digital Television) and we now have a number beetween 18-30 new channels populating the digital spectrum.
As I write this I am watching Rounders (with John Turturro, Matt Damon and Edward Norton) on channel “La Sexta”. It has to be a nice movie, but unfortunately I cannot say for sure since the reception quality is far from good and I am experiencing continuos cuts and freezes. What a sloppy job!
The problem is, apparently, that our old antenna needs a second one to support the reception. Said antenna cannot be reached because it seems to be mounted on the terrace of a particular owner who is not a permanent resident and seems to be out in his home country. President Dionisio in collaboration with Fisem are now trying to reach him to see if we are granted access to the apartment to finish the installation. How long will this take? It’s hard to say, as you might have guessed, but hopefully the full installation can be accomplished as soon as possible.
But hey, meanwhile you are welcome to have a glimpse at the brand new quality that the Digital signal has to offer. The quality (at least on my Sony Bravia) is top-notch, very far from the noisy-blurred signal we have been enjoying until now.
If your TV does not have TDT included, you dont need to buy a new one: just head off to your favourite shop (Opencor, Urende, Carrefur, you say…) and buy one of those small TDT decoders. They are to be found for Euros 30-40. If you can read spanish there is more information available on the official TDT page.
Update: This morning, the TDT has been working flawlessly with zero corruption or image freezes. It seems that even without the additional receiver we will be enjoying periods of good reception. Nice!
