Standard engineering test pageThis is the standard teletext engineering test page that was transmitted on BBC 1 page 197. It was grabbed from off-air teletext with a BBC teletext adaptor. From the timestamp I downloaded this off air on Monday 21st October 1985, in late afternoon after school lessons. I have tweeked it slightly to set the seconds of the time to be zero, so that line zero ends in "00", and replaced the service text with "ENGINEERING". | |||
