The Digital Switch Over Is Getting Closer...Are You Ready?16th Jan 2012 1.46pm
The Digital Switch Over is happening and the date for this to begin is the 12th September 2012. The North East region has three transmitter groups and all areas supplied by these transmitters will be affected on the 12th September. However, this is the only the first stage of the switch over and the second and final stage will take place on the 26th September. This will then mean that the switch over has been complete. However, by this date, if you are not "digitally ready" by the final stage of the switch over, you will lose all of your terrestrial channels and will require a digital signal receiver to receive TV.
A complete info guide has been compiled by Leonards Electricals to help you out and this can found here.
As a further note, if you have already put in place actions in order to be ready for the switch over, well done to you! However, you will still lose channels on the 12th September as the first stage takes place and this will require your digital receiver to undergo a complete retune. This can be done by looking at your digital receiver's manufacturer's instruction booklet. A retune will also then need to be done on the 26th September, once the second stage has been completed. Once this is done, this will then mean you are complete and are set to enjoy all the best features brought to you by digital TV.
If all of this talk about retunes and receivers is a little daunting, don't worry. Pop into one of our stores and they will be more than happy to give you some advice. All of our stores and staff are official ask digital approved retailers trained to give you the right information for you!
For people a little worried about the switch over and all of the retuning involved, keep your eyes open in store and right here as we will be soon announcing details regarding our Digital Retune service which is designed to be there when the digital switch over happens and will provide a visit to your house from one of our highly trained staff to retune your digital products. This is a just another way of Leonards Electricals looking after their customers. So stay tuned!
