Does anyone know how to access the RTE2 pages on the new Aertel website. On the old site inserting 'aertelplus' in the URL allowed access to these pages.

I've been trying to access the technical info pages but cant... a blip they haven't uncovered methinks?

online it seems to be the Aertel on RTÉ One

DMC

I e-mailed the webmaster, they acknowledged the issue, but it hasn't been resolved yet.....

I grabbed those on a PC tuner with text (Hauppauge WinTV USB), would be good to have it available online again, so well done to DMC for emailing them.

I had a look just now for anything new, as well as Clonmel, there is:

Looks like they're fitting the DRM transmitter at Summerhill then.

Installation was supposed to have started just before Christmas and take a few months to complete.

Has anyone received the test transmissons? Probably not being between 0200 and 0500 hours. Perhaps I should ask has anyone got a DRM radio?

I'm confused.If they are going to turn off the transmitter when it's getting dark why not do it during the night to affect the least amount of people

And if a daylight slot is necessary why not do it during the day when it will be bright all the time

Cheers DMC ... ur the man! I was going to email them myself, but given the fact I usually get a standard response and never any action, I had kinda lost all hope!

Maybe they have been over enthusiastic ... now all of the navigation points to the RTE2 version of each page.... !!!!
