TV RECEPTION AT AKAROA
Position Of Set Will
Determine Image
The possibility that residents in Akaroa might not be able to obtain clear reception on their television sets from the proposed station in Christchurch has been raised by a correspondent, “Prospective Buyer.” He says: “No doubt many interested persons who are contemplating buying Akaroa properties would like to know the answer before paying the extremely high prices asked for these homes.”
Mr R. G. Tulloch, regional engineer in Christchurch for the New Zealand Broadcasting Service, said that the question was too vague to answer definitely The reception would depen? largely on where the set was placed. If it was placed under the shadow of a hill, out of sight of the mast, reception might be poor, with the image distorted by shadows.
