I really don´t know how to express this correctly - "TV over hertz wavelength"? For the UK. Thanks.

broadcast TV


Literally "over the airwaves", but this is how it is normally expressed in English.

So maybe you could put it: "including but not limited to TV over the airwaves, cable, fibre optics..."

Note from asker:
Hi James, only problem is is that I've used 'TV broadcasting' as a translation of 'explotación televisiva'. :)

TV/Television (transmitting) by Hertzian waves

No, it is not wavelength, that's something else.
Please check references.

Better broadcasting than transmitting, should you wish to include any of those. Regards.

analogue television

I think this is the "normal" way of saying it.
"analog" for the US
Peer comment(s):
disagree coolbrowne : It is not analogue vs. digital but rather airwaves vs. cable. The "Hertzian" attribute is no longer relevant.

okay, thanks for clearing that up :)
