Channel 5 was on UHF 48 from Winter Hill.. and I remember a caption saying 'BLT Technology' which I think was used for playout in the early days? It was a case of them rebooting the system by the looks of it!
FWIW Channel 5 came from Pearson TV in Stephen Street, pretty sure the playout was all Probel
