Transmitter on Tygerberg Hill
To be honest, we’re not big on television, so I can’t comment on the quality of the broadcasting. I quickly scanned the stations website and found a fairly comprehensive television schedule – which lists the time and name, but regrettably doesn’t offer much detail around the nature of the program listed.
Tune in – perhaps you’ll enjoy some of the programming!
PS. You don’t *really* have to be able to see the tower on the hill… seeing the hill will be good enough. 
Cape Town TV broadcasts local amateur stuff (actuality and documentary) and a lot of international documentaries that are in the public domain or Creative Commons licensed for free broadcast and distribution.
All of it’s quite interesting, actually.
Like you Paul, I was also unaware of Cape Town TV till about a year or so ago. I cannot receive analogue signals at home since I don’t have an antenna, so if it isn’t on DSTV, then it is not going to get a chance for my eyes to see it. I hope that since Soweto TV is on DSTV, that CCTV will eventually make it there too.
I would imagine that CCTV is a great starting platform for people who want to get into the TV industry whether they are engineers, directors, show hosts, content producers, camera operators, etc.
