[QUOTE="Adam792, post: 726790, member: 330868"] Just a question purely out of interest. :D I'm unsure as to whether I will get any response to it. I've read a bit about the satellites used by the former Soviet Union and how all of their television channels as well as those of the other communist bloc states were carried. (Presumably in SECAM). Did anyone ever receive any of these broadcasts in Western Europe? Were they easily viewable? I would imagine it would have been really quite interesting to see what the "other half" of the world as it was, watched. This article seems to suggest that reception was possible, if written with somewhat of a lacking of technical knowledge. _http://www.aceshowbiz.com/news/view/w0004694.html I'd be very interested to hear any experiences if anyone at all has any! I must admit the whole topic of how the "other half" lived fascinates me, and there are quite a few interesting YouTube clips to be viewed of Communist era TV. [/QUOTE]
