ANOTHER THING IS> People thinking of buying TVs in IRELAND B/aware
that TVs sold in most of republic of Ireland are made for the UK Market & sets sold have Terrestrial Freeview tuners install in them.
Make sure When BUYING A NEW LCD/PLASMA SOLD IN IRELAND MAKE Sure it Have a DIGITAL Terrestrial tuner Suitable for the Irish market.to receive RTE+ OTHER Stations on the Digital network Here in IRELAND.
My Samsung LED/TV has a Terrestrial Freeview tuner in it & i can't tune in RTE/TV3/3e/Tg4 Stations.So i see now in Powercity they have on some of their TVs they are now selling> Saying has IRISH Digital tv tuner INSTALL. TO LATE FOR ME ON TV.
Now in case if i am wrong on this problem ,Let me know ?
