You are entirely misinterpreting what I am saying. I didn't say the BBC should "make sure everyone knows" how their protocols work, they should allow the people who want to know. I gave an example, I would have thought that made it clear. I am not entirely sure what you mean by "how its (former) transmitters work". I can find information for you regarding how DVB works, is that what you wanted? For that you need ETSI EN 300 744 V1.5.1 Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB);Framing structure, channel coding and modulation for digital terrestrial television Enter it into the form at: <http://pda.etsi.org/pda/queryform.asp> for free download. If you wanted to know about Analogue TV try: <http://www.itu.int/rec/recquery_xml.asp?formName=Search&formStatus=input&sIn=T&lang=en&sSeriesHidden=&sRec=BT.470&sWord=&sArea=ALL&sStatus=ANY&sDocLang=ANY&sDateFrom=&sDateTo=> You may be able to get it Free under the 3-Free scheme (you can download 3 Recommendations per year for free, see the ITU's website for details). If you want to know how transmitters in general work there are a number of books on the subject. Andy -- Computers are like air conditioners.
