To receive reception on your Television one needs to retune analogue settings (available in menu “settings”).   When scanning is complete one will now have the new channel – either UHF Channel 30 or UHF Channel 35 (or both in certain areas of Millstreet).   All this depends on how strong the signal is in any given area.   The UHF Channel 30 signal comes from the Carriganima direction whereas the UHF Channel 35 signal comes from the western side of Millstreet Town.  This is now saved and is presently transmitting the EWTN (Religious) Channel.

Millstreet Athletic Club News

Our athletes braved terrible weather conditions on Sunday last at Castlelyons to compete at the Munster Cross Country Championships.  It was a true test to their ability as the heavy rain never let up and the course was completely cover with mud making it really hard to get going.
Donal Bourke just missed out on a medal for the Cork team by finishing 7th for the team but he has qualified to run the All-Ireland Championships in Waterford in December.  We are very proud of him to be wearing the Millstreet A.C singlet at such a high level and we wish him all the best.
The club was also represented at Castlelyons by Emily Ring, Sarah Bourke, Orla Buckley, Ian Buckley, Daniel Buckley, James Buckley, Ian Buckley and Eanna O’Mahony.  While they didn’t bring home any medals they will all go forward to running in the Munster “B” Championship at Beaufort on 1st December next and we look forward to this event.
