What is Digital TV and what does it mean to me?
Basically there are two ways of transmitting a television signal – analogue and digital. Analogue waves can deteriorate when transmitted over long distances or in difficult circumstances such as poor weather.

Digital transmission ensures crystal clear picture and sound all the time. Digital transmission also uses less of the frequency bandwidth than analogue which means we can offer you a wider choice of channels when you subscribe to Digital TV.
