HC Deb 26 July 1968 vol 769 cc260-1W
Mr. Crouch

asked the Postmaster-General if he will consider establishing a booster station on the East Kent coast to improve B.B.C.1 television reception.

Mr. Joseph Slater

The quality of the reception of their services is primarily a matter for the B.B.C, who have already established stations at Dover and Folkestone, besides the one at Canterbury.

Mr. Crouch

asked the Postmaster-General how the television signal of B.B.C.1 on the East Kent coast compares with the minimum standards laid down by his Department; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Joseph Slater

The television signal of B.B.C.1 varies in strength from place to place. In the East Kent Coast area it is generally well above the minimum level required for satisfactory reception, providing efficient sets and aerials are used.
