Czech Republic

CT1

Courtesy of the close proximity of Eutelsat's EuroBird to the Astra satellites used by Sky Digital, we get a glimpse of Czech television.  Not many idents to see, though unpleasant permanent logos in the top left are an effective distraction from the programming.  Not surprising for a country so close to Germany geographically, the presentation style is reminiscent of Germany's commercial networks RTL+ and Sat1.

CT2

The main evening news on CT2 at 9pm CET is followed by something much more important - an announcement from Czech Radiocommunications that two major transmitters will be off-air tomorrow.  Some promos follow, then we lost the signal when the scrambling kicked in at 10pm CET.
