transmitter that serves
your area. To check

Television in the UK is going digital and will bring us all more
choice and new services. Between late 2007 and the end of
2012, region by region, all television services in the UK will
become completely digital.
Please see above to find out when your area will switch over.
Digital UK is an independent, non-profit organisation leading
the process of digital TV switchover in the UK. Digital UK
provides impartial information on what people need to do to
prepare for the move to digital and when they need to do it.
How the switchover will affect your TV
equipment:
Your new TV has a built in digital tuner, which means it is ready
to receive the Freeview signal by simply plugging it into your
aerial socket. (You can go to www.digitaluk.co.uk to check
if you can get digital TV through your aerial now, or whether
you'll have to wait until switchover.)
When switchover happens in your area, there are at least two
occasions when you will need to re-tune your TV to continue
receiving the existing TV channels and also to pick up new
ones. Digital UK, the body leading the switchover, will advise
you when you need to re-tune.
If you choose to connect your TV to satellite or cable with a
digital box then it will not be affected by the switchover and
you won't need to re-tune.

How to re-tune:
As new services are broadcast it will be necessary to re-
