The Big Screen

[The Doctor]

But all those other stadia are horrible colours.

Most networks have great signal at HP, the problem is bandwidth on the towers... You probably get a decent number of bars on your mobile (not that this even means anything technically) so If you think of the signal as being how good a connection to the tower you have with your hosepipe, and the actual internet as being the water, the tower only has so much water to go around... On non matchdays you'll find you can get a decent speed and decent connection, on matchdays it's very stuttering and generally poor... This is because of the thousands of people all connecting to the same tower .. you'll notice this anytime you are in a large crowd of people and try to access the mobile network.

No, that is not the case, at Chelsea in a crowd of 40000 it worked fine.

Chelsea have way more masts around their ground. Same with Wembley.

And they're both sponsored by mobile phone network provision companies.

It’s about the network capacity around a location. Just because there is plenty of capacity through the cell towers around Stamford bridge, it doesn’t mean the same applies for the ones around HP.

No, it's on a ship somewhere. Club hoping it's installed by end of August.

That ship needs Schuey at the wheel.

The only update i heard about it was on the argyle website stating it's unlikely to be ready for the first home game. I heard nothing after that.

anyone know if its a flat or curved screen??? Curved would make more sense...

 

[IJN]

Flat. It's on GoS

 

[Andy B.]

I have a curved TV...I think its a gimmick.

If your dead centre to it its great. But if not then not so great.

 

[Biggs]

Yep curved would surely just reduce the viewing angles, it’s really for gamers sat right in front of it to get an immersive view.

Yes it is the case... As mentioned many times on here... More masts with probably a higher bandwidth around Chelsea

 

[argyleforever]

Ahhh ok, i thought the whole point of curved screens was so you can see from the side angles better. Guess im wrong.

i see some people complaining about not being able to see the screen in certain blocks, i really hope this isnt the case. I dont see why the screen needs to be so many rows forward, if it was a couple rows back maybe this wouldnt be the case but what do i know
