Information about how to
re-tune your TV during the
digital
TV switchover.
Info for UK only.
Television in the UK is going digital, bringing us
all more choice and new services. Starting in
late 2007 and ending in 2012, television
services in the UK will go completely digital, TV
region by TV region.
Please see the next page to find out when your
area switches to digital.
Digital UK is the independent, non-profit
organisation leading the process of digital TV
switchover in the UK. Digital UK provides im-
partial information on what people need to do
to prepare for the move to digital, and when
they need to do it.
How the switchover affects
your TV equipment:
Your new TV has a digital tuner built in, which
means it is ready to receive the Freeview signal
by simply plugging it into your aerial socket
(check if you can get digital TV through your
aerial now, or whether you’ll have to wait until
switchover, at www.digitaluk.co.uk).
When the TV switchover happens in your area,
there are at least two occasions when you will
need to re-tune your TV in order to continue
receiving your existing TV channels, and also to
pick up new ones.
