Transmitter
The Mount Erin television transmitter was commissioned in 1966, broadcasting Wellington's WNTV1 channel. Television arrived in the Hawke's Bay in 1963 with a private translator atop Kahuranaki, 6 km (3.7 mi) south-southeast of Kohinurākau. The New Zealand Broadcasting Corporation (NZBC) commissioned a temporary transmitter atop Te Mata Peak in 1965 prior to the commissioning of the Mount Erin transmitter.[2]
