No, Friday morning was 5 minutes through security & early Tuesday at Tullamarine almost straight through.
Unless your flying Jetstar & have a calculator & weight scale to work out your luggage, $15 a kilo over 15kg if you dont book extra baggage online.
It's also a half hour walk to the departure lounge, then they weigh your bags again. Jetstar also call boarding 25 minutes before departure so you can sit in their mini seats for 35 minutes before takeoff.

Jetstar is the absolute pits. Would rather pay the difference and go Virgin or Qantas. Had to unfortunately travel to Melbourne with Jetstar a month or so back and the departure gate was closer to Ballarat than Melbourne!
Crappy seats and crappy service. Even Tiger is a better option


Hell yes (although you're stretching it a bit with the Tiger remark :lol: )

Jetstar are terrible

ALWAYS THE WAY, too many people miss out waiting for the FALL OF ROME before buying tickets which demonstrates RECKLESS behaviour.

Rearranged the lounge room to run the TV from the antenna outlet at the wall as opposed to bunny ears.

However, now we don't pick up Channel Nine.

Is there an easy way to tell whether this is because of interference from the wall to TV (same outlet is in very close proximity to NBN box, modem, and a power board running four appliances) or whether the antenna on the roof needs fixing?

Had a similar problem at my mums house with the TV in the lounge not being able to pick up channel 7 after my mum and sister remodeled the lounge. Tried everthing before considering getting the aerial fixed and we discovered that channel 7 wasn't working when Foxtel was on. All of 7's channels only work when the Foxtel is turned off at the wall. So I'm thinking it would be an interference from one of the things you mentioned. You may have to run a few tests turning things off to see if you can pick up channel 9 again.

Thanks, I reckon I'll switch everything else off and see if it picks up.

much more likely to be an issue with terminating the cable than the antenna itself on the roof. but without a multimeter its hard to know.

one thing you could do is pull the wall plate off and check that the coaxial cable is screwed into it properly

Thanks will check.

Was thinking a quad shield cable from TV to wall might do the trick if there is interference.

:lol:

Given there's lots of room out there to move around, given the state of the art navigation equipment, given someone is getting paid big, big money to keep their eyes open, it does seem strange.
