But it doesn't seem to affect mobile phones etc?


Mobile phone calls do have small buffering/encoding delays, more
noticeable if you call someone in the same room, but signal tends to
only travel tens or hundreds of miles, signals between studio and
presenter outside the courthouse can travel tens of thousands of miles...


Mobile fones do delay the signals but TV is worse more coding and
decoding etc . Its modern digital tech. The delays on FM compared to DAB
are around 20 seconds;!..
