Monday, 23 April 2007 Still off the air
We're still off the air, although the technical bods say it's nothing to do with the new high voltage main they were having installed at around the same time we went off the air. They've reached this conclusion because the cable linking our studio with the distribution box which transmits our signal around the site does not, apparently, pass through that area. I'm not entirely convinced myself, but we have no choice but to go with their diagnosis. We now await a visit from the contractor who deals with the distribution of our signal to see if he can identify the fault. It is most frustrating for the presentation team, and I am now getting daily text messages asking when we are going back on the air. Before too long we will also start getting calls from ward managers as well. I've made the best use of the time off air and the new version of our computer software is now installed and seems to be working well bar one or two minor technical glitches. And there's better news in the long term, because the hospital have now told us they are looking at installing new bedside units throughout the site.
