Between 2008- 2012, television services in the UK will go completely digital, TV region by TV region (The exception is Whitehaven in Cumbria which became the first place to switch in October 2007). The old analogue television signal will be switched off and viewers will need to convert or upgrade their TV equipment to receive digital signals, whether through their aerial, by satellite, cable or broadband.
Digital Switchover is when all television in the UK switches to a digital signal. When the switchover happens in your region, you will need to have digital equipment to continue watching TV. If you don't, you won't be able to receive any TV programmes.
Are you ready for the Digital Switchover? Let our community of experienced engineers guide you in establishing whether you need to change your TV receiving equipment in time for the Digital Switchover.
