1341127 2013-05-13 22:16:00 I think its starting sometime today, or this week. I dont think its on Sky or Igloo. It'll only be broadcasted on Freeview UHF. Altho it may not be in Whangarei, Rotorua, Taupo, Gisborne, Whanganui, Wairarapa, Nelson, Timaru, Invercargill. According to some sites

JDA (Whangarei, Rotorua, Taupo, Gisborne, Whanganui, Wairarapa, Nelson, Timaru, Invercargill)

1341130 2013-05-13 23:17:00 Read here. (www.stuff.co.nz)


Free-to-air sports are about to make a comeback on New Zealand TV screens, with the soft launch of Sommet Sports on Freeview at the end of this week.


Once testing is complete the station will go live on Freeview channel 14.

Looks like it is on the way. I wonder if they are going to be broadcasting over satellite.

1341131 2013-05-13 23:22:00 Nope dont think Sat or Igloo will be getting it. Only freeview UHF (in some areas for now). And I think it has to support MHEG5. Which, I would say most UHF boxes / TV's support Speedy Gonzales (78)
1341132 2013-05-13 23:41:00 I read somewhere that the tivos aren't compatible. Runs out to buy new box. plod (107)
1341133 2013-05-14 01:32:00 Will most likely move to Sky only in the next few months.. paulw (1826)
1341134 2013-05-14 02:00:00 It wont be on Sky. Whats the point in telling people about it, that it'll be on FV, but it'll be on Sky later Speedy Gonzales (78)
1341135 2013-05-14 02:10:00 Nope dont think Sat or Igloo will be getting it. Only freeview UHF (in some areas for now). And I think it has to support MHEG5. Which, I would say most UHF boxes / TV's support
