Making Plans 936 Posted April 10, 2015 Don''t know if this has been mentioned before but Radio Norfolk is now available through your TV on Freeview (Channel 719) throughout the BBC Look East TV area. Presumably this means Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Herts, Beds, Bucks, Northamptonshire & Cambridgeshire. This potentially means that commentairies are available in a much larger area than those via the conventional radio transmissions, assuming of course that they''re not blocked as per the internet transmission of Radio Norfolk.

We will still have to spend money to listen to a BBC station.......strange when the BBC broadcasting is supposed to be free and paid for by the tax payers.....

Making Plans 936 Posted April 10, 2015 http://www.bbc.co.uk/reception/news/item47It''s not on Freesat. To get it on Freeview you have to be within the Look East area & receive your TV signals from one of three transmitters - Tacolneston, Sandy Heath (Bedfordshire) or Sudbury.Freeview is not like Freesat where, by changing your postcode in the set up, you can change the TV region that you watch.

AJ 1,221 Posted April 11, 2015 Sadly even if there was a free to air channel for the radio station it wouldn''t work during the match as the BBC no longer hold the rights to broadcast live matches outside of radio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mutley 76 Posted April 11, 2015 Freeview working here in South Suffolk using the Sudbury transmitter. Thanks for the info, much appreciated! Hoping that it will not get blocked in a few minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Syteanric 1 Posted April 15, 2015 was it on freeview last night? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave 0 Posted April 15, 2015 There is no need to block commentary on freeview as the signal will only work from cetrain transmitters in the region, the further out you go you are unlikely to receive RNSky is unliekly co carry it as its available world wide and would have to block matches like they do in the internet.
