In the area of the city of Vyborg, you can accept many television channels from the neighbors of Finland.
Residents of the country of Suomi can accept TV television programs of Russia and three radio stations in DVB-T2 from Vyborg.

In Finland, 6 multiplexes of digital television, designated by Latin letters - a, b, c, d, e, f.

Free TV multiplexes - four:
A (buttons 1 - 5, 13, 33, 99) - mainly, state channels "Yle TV1", "Yle TV2", "MTV3", "4", "Yle Teema", etc.
C (buttons 7, 10, 11, 12, 16, 20) - other channels - "5", "6", "TLC", "Fox", "National Geographic"
E (buttons 6, 8, 9, 14, 15, 18, 26, 19, 30, 38) (broadcast in DVB -T, conventional resolution 576i, MPEG2 codec) - entertainment channels - "Sub", "LIV", "SIM", "Hero", "A", "MT", "INEZ", "One WAY TV",, " " estradi"
B (on the buttons 21, 22, 23, 35 and 39) - high -resolution multiplex (DVB -T2, MPEG4/H.264, 1920x1080 codec).
These 6 channels duplicate the multiplex "a", but as "HD": "Yle TV1 HD", "Yle TV2 HD", "MTV3", "Yle TEEMA GEM HD", "Estradi"/

All free multiplexes can be found and "revealed" by a conventional TV.

Paid - multiplexes D, F (DVB-T2, buttons 40-69) show in the presence of subscription (console with CI+support, CONAX Coding) - such television channels as Dyscovery, Eurosport, Animal Planet, Feature Films and Series, channels sports. The coating area does not differ from the open multiplexes A, B, C, E.

Also in beta testing is “hybrid TV” (logical channel numbers from 80 to 140) - a hybrid of terrestrial and smart TV via the Internet with elements of interactivity, voting, etc. (see hbbTV). For interactive TV, you need special receivers or TVs that support the HbbTV 1.5 standard. These channels are distributed via the Internet. But in the on-air signal of a regular channel, links (URLs) to interactive services can be transmitted according to the standard.

All the etheric channels of multiplexes a, b, c, d, e, f are broadcast from the same tower in the village of JoutSeno:
Longitude: 28.5408 E (28° 32' 27" E)
Latitude: 61.13136 N (61° 7' 53" N)
Qth Locator: KP41GD

The height of the installation of the antenna above the middle relief (Haat) is 200 meters.
Effective radiated power (EIRP) has each multiplex A, B, C, E-50 kW.

Frequency of Finnish TV in Vyborg:
A - 682 MHz (47th channel);
C - 594 MHz (36th channel);
E - 562 MHz (32nd channel).

HD multiplex:
B - 586 MHz (35th channel).

Paid multiplexes:
D - 658 MHz (44th channel),
F - 634 MHz (41st channel).

The polarization of radio waves is everywhere horizontal.
It should be noted that the work of TV in the VHF range (177-226 MHz, frequency channels 6-12) was discontinued in Finland in 2020.

The frequencies of Russia's television in choice and Svetogorsk (DVB-T2)

Russian TV boradcasts is performed on the UHF band:
1st Multiplex: 498 MHz (24th Ether channel),
2nd Multiplex: 722 MHz (52nd etheric channel).

The composition of the first and second multiplexes of Russian television: dvbpro.ru - DVB-T2 multiplexes, Wikipedia - Digital television in Russia (article in Russian).

Power and height of the DVB-T2 transmitters in Vyborg and Svetogorsk:

* Vyborg * - Mount Papule, RTPC Tower, transmitter power 3.2 kW, installation height 185.0 meters.
Svetogorsk ** - tower - transmitter power 50 W, installation height of 70 meters.

TV broadcasting in the ranges of 49-99 MHz (channels 1-5) and 175-224 MHz (channels 6-12) in connection with the disconnection of the "analogue" is not made.

In May or June, I plan to make a trip to Vyborg, accept digital TV. Already acquired a DVB-T2 prefix Selenga and HDMI-USB converter. It remains to solve the problem with the supply of the prefix (5V and 1A) in the car.
