| - | [[ITVS]], the //Internal Television Service//, began in the last 1960s using the TV studio and equipment of the [[Media Services Unit]] in EDB (now Silverstone). The nature of ITVS changed with advancing technology, becoming UnionVIdeo, and after some years' gap, was relaunched as [[UniTV]]. | + | It is interesting to learn that Sussex had a campus TV station before it had a radio station. Starting in the last 1960s, using the Media Services TV studio in EDB (now Silverstone), a TV programme called In Camera was produced in one or more editions per term. Many rooms on campus (school common-rooms/tea bars, lecture theatres etc) were wired up via a Rediffusion network and by turning the control to channel G at the advertised time, you could watch In Camera. The TV station later adopted the name ITVS ("Internal Television Service") and lasted for most of the 1970s compiling at least one show a week at times. The nature of ITVS changed over the decades, becoming UnionVideo as technology moved on and the heavy unmovable equipment at EDB was replaced by portable camcorders. UniTV is the current equivalent. |
