Sound quality
"the sound mix was often very poor, with a curious quality that made it sound like everything had been 'phased'" The mix varied considerably in quality. However, I suspect that the source for the second claim was from the Tube on DVD, because that processed the mono mix into a dreadful pseudo-stereo effect which did bear some resemblance to phasing. Listening to the sound quality on any of the many episodes available on YouTube which were sourced from viewers' VHS off-air recordings, there is little or no evidence of any phasing effect. The sound as broadcast was mono and reasonably clear but, as expected from any show with a wide variety of locations, personnel and equipment, the broadcast audio quality was unpredictable. Acts performing live on the show, I gathered from contemporaneous interviews, praised The Tube for the attention its staff paid to their all-important onstage monitor mix, which was very different to the low standard of previous live music TV shows. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Airlane1979 (talk • contribs) 17:30, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

The Tube (TV series) → The Tube (1982 TV series) – Insufficient disambiguation. See The Tube (2003 TV series) and The Tube (2012 TV series). 162 etc. (talk) 14:13, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Support per nomination. A likely uncontroversial technical request. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 16:05, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Support the 1982 one has 1,713 views but the 2003 one has 143 and the 2012 one has 93[|The_Tube_(2003_TV_series)|The_Tube_(2012_TV_series)] which probably isn't enough for a PDAB.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 16:36, 13 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Support and redirect the current title to the dab page when done moving. Gonnym (talk) 20:05, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Support a move to The Tube (TV programme) per WP:NCTV. The 1982 "series" was not actually a series. JohnCWiesenthal (talk) 14:14, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
 * That's still ambiguous; the 2003 and 2012 series could also be considered "programmes". No objection to using (1982 TV programme), (2003 TV programme), and (2012 TV programme). 162 etc. (talk) 15:04, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
