Please see overleaf <strong>to</strong> find out when <strong>your</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a switches <strong>to</strong> digital.<br />
Digital UK is the independent, non-profit organisation leading the<br />
process of digital <strong>TV</strong> switchover in the UK. Digital UK provides<br />
impartial <strong>information</strong> on what people need <strong>to</strong> do <strong>to</strong> p<strong>re</strong>pa<strong>re</strong> for<br />
the move <strong>to</strong> digital, and when they need <strong>to</strong> do it.<br />
How the switchover affects <strong>your</strong><br />
<strong>TV</strong> equipment:<br />
Your new <strong>TV</strong> has a digital <strong>tune</strong>r built in, which means it is <strong>re</strong>ady<br />
<strong>to</strong> <strong>re</strong>ceive the F<strong>re</strong>eview signal by simply plugging it in<strong>to</strong><br />
<strong>your</strong> aerial socket (check if you can get digital <strong>TV</strong> through <strong>your</strong><br />
aerial now, or whether you’ll have <strong>to</strong> wait until switchover,<br />
at www.digitaluk.co.uk).<br />
When the <strong>TV</strong> switchover happens in <strong>your</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a, the<strong>re</strong> a<strong>re</strong> at least<br />
two occasions when you will need <strong>to</strong> <strong>re</strong>-<strong>tune</strong> <strong>your</strong> <strong>TV</strong> in order <strong>to</strong><br />
continue <strong>re</strong>ceiving <strong>your</strong> existing <strong>TV</strong> channels, and also <strong>to</strong> pick up<br />
new ones. Digital UK, the body leading the digital <strong>TV</strong> switchover,<br />
will advise you when you need <strong>to</strong> <strong>re</strong>-<strong>tune</strong> <strong>during</strong> the switchover.<br />
If you choose <strong>to</strong> connect <strong>your</strong> <strong>TV</strong> <strong>to</strong> satellite or cable with a digital<br />
box then it will not be affected by switchover, and you won’t need<br />
<strong>to</strong> <strong>re</strong>-<strong>tune</strong>.<br />
How <strong>to</strong> <strong>re</strong>-<strong>tune</strong>:<br />
If you a<strong>re</strong> missing any channels, it may be that they a<strong>re</strong> not<br />
available in <strong>your</strong> a<strong>re</strong>a, or that <strong>your</strong> aerial needs upgrading.<br />
