| Rob writes: "I was passing through London so decided to try and hit a couple of sites in the capital. On the face of it seemingly relatively easy to get to, there must have been a reason why these hadn't been done before, so in I stepped. The White City self help is a self help relay managed by the BBC to cover a small area where the signal from Crystal Palace is blocked by the White City complex and the Westway. I arrived at the White City tube station and took a look over behind me and spotted a suspicious looking Tx log, but no Rx could be found anywhere....." So what HAD Rob found? |

| It transpires that what Rob found wasn't the self help at all, but a test facility provided by the BBC to investigate DVB-T2 Lite. The relevant research paper is linked from the bottom of this page. |

| Rob adds: "I think this is a road many of the contributors have walked! I did check down here, and the relay wasn't there. A misnomer if you ask me!" No bitterness there then.... |
