* Derwent library: just upstairs of the JCR. Port known to exist, but location unknown. (used to broadcast elections from here - pre student union run "courtyard" opened). | |||

** 2 satellite COAX's to some (probably rusty) dishes ontop of G/169 (computer room upstairs).

*** The physics send & returns go out the window, over the roofs, drape onto the covered walkways, turn left at YUSU (student centre / Daww Suu), along towards physics, and enter via various methods into the PX/002 loft space - YSTV used to be based in the chair store, so when forced out, new cables were just chained to physics. | *** The '''physics send & returns''' go out the window, over the roofs, drape onto the covered walkways, turn left at YUSU (student centre / Daww Suu), along towards physics, and enter via various methods into the PX/002 loft space - YSTV used to be based in the chair store, so when forced out, new cables were just chained to physics. | ||
*** One coax enters through that awkward hole halfway up the wall, and the other thee cables go past the wall, get sealed in with the doors, do a U-turn, then the disappear into the loft space. | |||
** Coax and XLR to the photobooth outside James JCR. There used to be a TV there, before passports became popular. | |||
* Vanburgh TV distro to JCR & Bar TV's. | |||
** At Vanburgh vending machines up high on the back wall, is a coil of cables: via a series of mini-distro's and junction boxes, the cables can be used to send video IN ONE DIRECTION ONLY - there is thought to be something active hidden behind those ceiling tiles. Sound is just unbalanced phono to a pattress box near the JCR entrance, being just cable, there are no direction oddities. | |||
