Navigating This Site

If you've just found this site after reading the latest Wimborne U3A Newsletter, welcome. As this is a blogsite, the latest entry is the first in the list. To read this site from the beginning, therefore, you should scroll to the bottom of this column and read "backwards" until you return to the top. All entries in a blogsite are called "posts". There is also a sidebar on the right which contains reference material which always remains in the same position.

Once there are more than seven posts, a further page will become set up and a link to earlier pages will appear at the bottom of this column.The switch to digital television is the largest development in the world of tv since the advent of colour. In fact, it is a lot more complicated for the user than may be initially apparent. Digital television has allowed the development of widescreens and high definition, accompanied by many more features which the user can adjust than ever before. This site and the accompanying course are designed to dispel the mystique and empower the viewer with the knowledge to enable a full enjoyment of digital television.

If you have not yet joined the ranks of those who have already ventured into this digital tv world, a special one-off session is available each term to provide an introduction to the topic.

On this blogsite you will be able to find the latest information about the analogue switch-off and changes to the digital services. Please use the "Comments" facility to add your own thoughts, observations, questions, answers etc. The latest information about any of the topics for which there is currently an item will appear as a Comment. It is advisable, therefore, to check regularly to see if any new Comments have been posted.
