    Just turned on my TV there and within ~30 seconds, RTE1 went off. RTE2 is also off, but TV3 and TG4 are fine

    Is there work being done on the VHF transmitters on Kippure today?

    http://www.rte.ie/aertel/aertelplus/p530.htm

    lots of info there today :)
    TRANSMITTER SITE: Kippure              
                                        
 SERVICE: RTÉ ONE, RTÉ TWO              
                                        
 DATE: 14/06/06 - 15/06/06              
                                        
 TIME/DURATION: 0830-1300               
                                        
 During the above period RTÉ NL Riggers 
 will carry out essential maintenance on
 the structure at Kippure. This will    
 result in reduced power during the     
 above time period. This will have      
 minimal impact on our viewers.
