It's the Box Nation feed Featuring the Flintoff fight, watching it now on my VU+Duo

[gadstamut]

Is Flintoff fighting yet, Cant get it my 90cm must be to small. Seems a lot of confusion over this fight.

[sparky_dog]

Flintoff not up yet, but won't be long.

Despite good signal on other FTA channels on this sat, I can't see the feeds either.

Maybe it's because it's HD S2??

[sparky_dog]

I'm having to use a cheapo 80cm and a crappy LNB at the moment, so I've no chance. Can't see the transponder, DVB-S2 or otherwise.

...it's back to boxnation for me.

Can't find the feed on Costa del Sol with 1.2m, fingers crossed it will come on JSC1

Funke dish and Black Ultra here in the west midlands

I got same dish setup, very powerful kit.

I don't think you can decode anything because it's a none standard transmission 4:2:0 mate.

Anyway watching it on Boxnation 11585H 27500, good picture on my Spiderbox.

mate 4:2:0 is the standard PAL transmission format always FTA,think your confused with 4:2:2

Yes you are right mate, but still need a box that can do PAL, that's back to the dmac BSB days :)

[simon 2003]

PAL is standard format in uk maybe DVB-T now analouge tv is gone

[blueking]

[snapperoonie]

24.5W
I can be so forgetfull sometimes
Anyway it's over now he's won on points

[sparky_dog]

39-38?

Assuming the round with the knockdown was a 10-8 to Dawson, Freddie must have had 11 points in one of the other rounds...

Well the fight was always a joke but it did arouse alot of interest and I'm far too sodden with Stella to get into any sort of coherent discussion about the technicalities of broadcast transmission standards or indeed the finer points of scoring a boxing match :-)
BTW if any nerds are reading this it's now just showing a test card with the text
"Arqiva S200 SNG
UKI 614
1080i50" :-)
Goodnight all :-)

Off topic, Tyson Fury v Kevin “Kingpin” Johnson looks like a good flight to watch tomorrow, it's on Channel 5 @ 21:00!

[sparky_dog]

I think the ref must have had some sort of brainstorm.

TBH, I didn't mind the whole debacle, though Freddie and Barry McGuigan have had a bit of flak for it. The fight did end up a bit of a pub carpark brawl, but I would say it takes conkers to face anyone that size in the ring.

The crowd seemed to enjoy it, anyway.


Fury-Johnson is FTA on Channel 5, see here...

Cheers mate, just found it. That will a great flight, not to be missed.

I thought Flintoff was a bit of a girl, but it must take balls to go in the ring for the first time.

[simon 2003]

he was ****e to be fair i know the occasion and crowd probably got to him but if you have watched any of the series on sky1 from lords to the ring hes looked ok in sparring bobbing and weaving and good jabs and he looked ok,i know a million miles from a real fight in the ring but in the fight he was slapping and just steaming in nothing like he s been taught ,i bet mcguigan was disapointed in reality.

[sparky_dog]

I agree, he looked 10 times better in the sparring they showed. When he starting swinging that right arm, he looked like he was bowling!

Did you see Barry at ringside, he looked like he was going to blow a gasket.

[simon 2003]

yea mate he just threw all they had taught him out the window and went street fighter and that only works after 10 pints of stella:cheers2:
