HC Deb 08 December 1965 vol 722 c98W
Mr. Lomas

asked the Postmaster-General when reception of B.B.C.2 will be available to Huddersfield; and what progress has been made with the erection of a temporary aerial on the present Independent Television Authority mast at Emley Moor.

Mr. Benn

The extension of B.B.C.2 coverage is a matter, in the first place, for the Corporation. A temporary B.B.C.2 aerial at Emley Moor has already been installed. Test transmissions at low power began on 29th November; the service is available only to a small part of Huddersfield. B.B.C.2 will be available to the town as a whole when the permanent aerial is brought into service. This, the B.B.C. expect, will be in the spring.
