Talk:C31 Melbourne

Corrections

Anonymous IP 203.17.45.90 has infuriated me.

• To say that the concept of a community television license did not exist before 2002 is silly. The broadcasting legislation did not name community licenses as such, but clearly it had a class of broadcasting licenses which were handed to several organizations that identified themselves as 'community-access broadcasters', for the purposes of non-commercial broadcasting.
• I dispute that OzTam can be described as the 'official' ratings company for community access television ratings. The C31 'office' certainly doesn't use it very often. I also want it maintained that OzTam is not statistically reliable for very small market share.
• You might argue the need for some of my previous discussion about the quality of the signal, but not all of it. The facts that C31 is on UHF, analogue only, broadcasts in mono, and has poor signal quality are its most noteworthy features.
• To say 'all TV sets are capable of receiving C31' is just rubbish. Digital tuners and cable television users cannot receive C31. People whose aerials cannot receive UHF cannot receive C31. Owing to the low signal strength, most people in Victoria who can receive the other stations that broadcast from Mt Dandenong cannot receive C31.

I've factored some of this into the article and removed the NPOV tag [1] Agnte 13:18, 21 February 2006 (UTC)

Can someone please change the logo to the correct one? --Thewizkid93 00:49, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Look further down this page please, we have discussed it. Move on and stop asking over and over - Mike Beckham 02:59, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

I'm fairly sure C31 doesn't have an official slogan- but if they do, "TV Now!" definately isn't it- TV Now is the name of their online video service. Have removed from the article. --Kyelewis (talk) 05:11, 11 March 2010 (UTC)

The logo is the wrong one. The colours are wrong. --Thewizkid93 04:11, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

• Like how programs section has been edited into a more convenient size and like the rationale. In the edit however, the depth of information has suffered and at least two programs seem not to have their info transferred to a program specific Wiki entry.
• Also think that the discussion on digital TV should mention C31's campaign to get themselves onto digital. Would it be appropriate to put a link to their own page titled "Don't go until we go"? I couldn't figure out how to do it myself.

Cheers

The logo used for the article seems to be on a white background and the logo shown on the C31 website is on a black background. A lof of logo's are usually created on a white background and a coloured background..so maybe that's why the white one is used (easier to see)? --Mikecraig 04:21, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Correct, I asked a friend to make a PNG version and to see it, it had to be this variation. - Mike Beckham 05:44, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Relays

The list of regional relays is very amusing fiction. The lack of reference to such relays here: http://www.c31.org.au/tune_in/tuning_in_to_c31 should be sufficient for their removal. 118.208.177.200 (talk) 10:41, 7 October 2009 (UTC)

Digital

Channel 31 has now been granted a digital licence. As I dont know the full details of it I am not going to edit the page but somebody who does know the details should. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kurtrules100 (talk • contribs) 07:31, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Various web pages say "in May 2010" and "May 1st 2010", but I cannot find an official announcement, and their web site doesn't mention it. -- Ian N. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.120.13.131 (talk) 03:22, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

Criticism

This article needs a criticism section to discuss the way the station is managed and programs are produced. I might start to gather up articles on the topic but anyone who understands the inner workings of the station should also consider contributing to this talk section or the article itself.
