Not sure when it's going to be broadcast.

Mae West is supposed to have said that any publicity is good publicity. Or maybe she said exposure, you catch my drift.

But Men and Motors? I dunno. Prepare to fluff up your chest wigs and polish up your medallions, is what I'm thinking.

I could be totally wrong, of course.

We will watch with bated breath.

The Used Car Roadshow with Jason Dawe and Penny Mallory is very good and did wonder when they did a cheap Jap coupe why the SVX didnt feature.

If anyone knows when it is due to be broadcast be good to find out as we have freeview but no longer M&m so will have to get a buddy to tape it

More info

Rob posted a message about this last wednesday, but for whatever reason it didn't appeared on the yahoo website. Had we known, I'm sure we could have rustled up half a dozen SVXes for them to film. A missed opportunity for sure.

Subject: [SVX Club UK] SVX required for ITV's Men & Motors

The Used Car Roadshow of ITV's Men & Motors is looking for an SVX to film at
the Bromley Pageant event in Bromley (Norman Park) this coming Sunday 25th June.
If you would be willing to attend the show and have your car featured on TV then
please do let them know; they'll cover your petrol expenses, provide you with
food and drinks (non-alcoholic I'm afraid) and will pay for you and one guest to
enter the event, so you could make a day of it.Contact Marc Lis, Senior
Researcher, The Used Car Roadshow at Daisybeck ProductionsElite Television

Used Car Roadshow is broacast on Sky 131 apparently. Go to
www.usedcarroadshow.co.uk for more details...broacast times are Monday
2100hrs, Tuesday 0100 and 1100hrs, Wednesday 1400hrs, Friday 0300hrs
and Saturday 1100hrs. Perhaps the site, or Sky, will inform as to when
the SVX is on - it was filmed alongside a Renault Avantime and a Rover!
For the benefit of those who don't subscribe to SkyDigital: Anyone in Europe with a satellite dish and digital decoder should be able to receive this channel. According to KingOfSat.net, it is broadcast unencrypted on Astra 2A at 28 degrees East. Transponder 12422 H 27500 2/3. I'll give it a try later and see if it works.

Phil.

Yes. I just managed to tune it in on my Comag.

What software is that? Are you using a Skystar card or something?

It's ProgDVB running with a Skystar2 card, I can't recommend the combination highly enough!
