Scarby Posted 30 March 2005 Share Posted 30 March 2005 Television history has been made with the start of the analogue switch-off in the UK.A tiny corner of Wales is no longer able to receive television through a conventional aerial and has gone digital instead. Around 460 homes in the villages of Ferryside and Llansteffan are now at the forefront of technology and can now only receive a digital TV signal. German capital Berlin is the only other place in Europe to have achieved this. The move is the first part of the Government's plan to switch off analogue TV completely and move over to digital by 2012. There are 11 million homes to convert across the country and it can cost up to £300 per household to go digital. British viewers face a combined bill of £3 billion to make the switch or lose out on television altogether. from Yahoo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
