Depending on where you live, you might be able to pick them up via VHF
from Mt. Cootha. I'm on Currumbin Hill and have good line-of-site to
Mt. Tamborine, but can also get all the VHF digital Brisbane channels
from Mt. Cootha.

In fact, my VHF Brisbane digital ABC reception is far superior to my UHF
Tamborine digital ABC reception. I'm not sure why this is, but suspect
it might be to with the very high frequency that ABC digital transmits
off Tamborine with; perhaps my cabling isn't up to the job. My UHF SBS
digital reception off Tamborine is much better than that of ABCs, and
comes in on a much lower UHF channel.
