Would whoever made the suggestion to expand the article please mention what needs expanding here, in the talk page, please. --Dom 01:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

According to the edit history, it was Matt von Furrie in January. If there no objections, we should remove it. ant_ie 09:14, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

It's been a week with no objections, so I'll remove it now --Dom 23:39, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

some things might be useful to add

1. what is TV1's target demographic? 2. when did it start broadcasting in colour? 3. what is the reach of its VHF signal? 4. anyone feel like editing the TV1 section on the main TVNZ page so it matches this page in quality? I tried but I still haven't got exactly what it is I want to say

Schedule

Erm, how did we get the primetime schedule "as of 19 September 2006" appearing here from 11 May 2006? Is it normal practice for TV One to announce its schedule four months in advance, and -- if so -- how likely is to stick to it? -- Picapica 20:56, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Eurovision?

Is TVNZ really a member of Eurovision? And I've never seen it show the Eurovision song contest. 118.90.69.176 (talk) 09:24, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Branding

A logo needs to be added for the period 1980 to 1987. -- Patchy1^(talk) 09:49, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

For others, to improve my editing of this page, so history is not lost. (I am in my late '50s)

And I am a newbie to editing Wikipedia, so need help

For Apollo 11, the footage came over by either a Vampire fighter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Vampire, or possibly a Canberra.

I have Aspergers and a near photographic memory, I was living in the North Island then, and there was a few seconds of video shown on TV of the footage arriving from Auz, it certainly was not a Hercules, the configuration I was impressed by was was more like a twin tail Vampire and not a Canberra. (the moon landing was live on Radio, I seem to recall about 3-pm NZ time, or was it the first step?)

The footage was beamed into the South Island from a new outside broadcasting van as I said, I recall it was said the receiving dish was at Nelson, that seems to be too far for one hop, however, as Nelson was a bigger centre than Blelium, that might have been the closest point for the new South Island microwave network, from which relay hops crossed to Wellington once the network was completed.

I was in Greymouth for the Whinine, I recall the CHTV3 announcer saying how the footage was obtained from Wellington as no planes were flying across due to the aftermath of the storm, Greymouth was on a translator from CHTV3, the translator owned by a local TV dealer, its signal sometimes overwhelmed by TV transmissions from Aus.

As for TV over coax lines, that was even possible with the first transatlantic phone cable, except that cable only had 36 voice circuits which were too valuable to be used for TV, but they had experimeted, and got TV footage over, but not in real time. (not in real time, in effect, slow motion due to bandwidth shortage)

The NZ Post Office in the '60s had coax toll lines, which could be used at great cost to transmit video, not until a microwave link Auckland to Dunedin was put in, did NZTV find it worthwhile to network, I suspect this network was put in to complement the first satalight station.

The Whineie footage is available from TVondemand, and shows the TV set, unfortitionly the announcers preamble saying how it was obtained must have been live from CHTV3 before the film was run, so is lost.

excuse spelling, that is my big bad skill.

Some good stuff, don't worry too much about spelling - "the elves" will fix things! Snori (talk) 12:02, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Dunedin's DNTV2 ?????????

I always thought that was DNTV4

Wellington was 1 Auckland was 2 Christchurch was 3

And Dunedin was 4. thus DNTV4

It would have been illogical to repeat a 2 after Auckland was 2.

Melon Thrower (talk) 09:49, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

thanks for the editing

1969 the two islands were each network-capable via microwave linkb, but the link over Cook Strait had no

from which is was forwarded through the recently ("is" change to "it"

I spotted one letter too many in the editing (copied above)but have not fixed it on the article. Thanks for improving my wording, Aspies tend to be too detailed, while my personal issue is spelling (my PC got me over that issue) most Aspies have trouble communicating as we think different, its not a mental health disorder, just our brains are hard wired differently.

However I can contribute from my memories, allowing others to do the wording.

PS, yes, you are right, logicically the tape would have come over by Canberra bomber, I guess the vampire was more on my mind back then, because of the twin tail boon.

I also wonder whether that new broadcast van had the only tape player for the tape from Aus, (no Beta those days, video tape players were as big as chest type freezers and expensive as) as well as the only microwave transmitter. Melon Thrower (talk) 07:55, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Wahine footage

Concerning the statement that the makeshift off-air telecine appears to be the only surviving footage of the first day see the documentary 50 Years of New Zealand Television, available from NZ On Screen and/or Youtube, at 14:10. The interviews with survivors shown there are almost certainly the original 16 mm film. --2003:45:4565:3563:7D81:384:B495:4049 (talk) 20:23, 25 June 2016 (UTC)

Rename

Should links to this article (e.g. [[TV One (New Zealand)|TV One]] be replaced by [[TVNZ 1]]? This is the channel's new name, but much of the links refer to the channel before its rename (e.g. Dancing with the Stars (New Zealand TV series)). Similar for TVNZ 2. Ollieinc (talk) 09:01, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

I would say anything pre-rebrand should stay as "TV One", here in the UK anything pre-1997 it's 'BBC1', but post its 'BBC One'. -- AxG / ✉ / 10 years of editing 12:11, 12 November 2016 (UTC)
