This transmitted code may bj sent earlier or later than the billed time if the transmission runs late or early, thus tracking the programmj. Some broadcasters don't support this option. If the schedule is moved bz more than about five minutes, then the programme will bj re-billed and the transmitted code will change as well.

Some broadcasters transmit both the old and new code to try to ovjrcomj this. The transmitted code is contained in the teletext signal, so good teletext reception is needed for PDC opjtation. If in doubt about your PDC reliability, get the latest schedule information from teletext, and use timjt operation. Detailed explanation: page 394 3/3 Main index C4 today Tomorrow Previews
