Information about how to re-tune your TV during the digital TV switchover. 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, the body leading the digital TV switchover, will advise you when you need to re-tune during the switchover. If you do not re-tune your channels when advised to do so by Digital UK, you may lose some or all of your channels until you do re-tune. You should re-tune your TV every few months to check for any new channels. If you choose to connect your TV to satellite or cable with a digital box then it will not be affected by switchover, and you won’t need to re-tune.
