Digital television will replace analogue television, throughout the UK by 2012, but nearly all the areas in Cumbria will switchover on 24th June 2009. Whitehaven was the first town in the UK to make this switchover in 2007.
The analogue television signal, that is available at the moment, will be switched off and from 24th June there will be only digital television in Cumbria.
To prepare for digital television in Cumbria, you must convert your television before that date, which involves purchasing a set top box, but does not involve replacing your existing television, that can receive the digital signals.
Aerial Aid stock, supply and fit three different types of set top boxes and the one you choose is all down to personal preference.
Freeview offers up to 48 digital television channels and 24 radio stations, which still gives you the five TV channels that you are used to, so no missing Eastenders or Corrie, but with exciting new channels, such as, Five US, which offers the best of American comedy, drama, entertainment and sport, and +1 (which airs programmes one hour later, so no need to worry about missing the start time). After the initial cost of a Freeview set top box is made there are no further payments i.e. Freeview does not require a subscription.
Freesat is the digital service offered by the BBC and ITV, with over 140 digital TV and radio channels, including HDTV, but has no contract or monthly subscription charges. If you enjoy BBC’s costume dramas or ITV’s coverage of the FA Cup, Freesat would be a great choice.
Sky has up to 160 digital channels and 230 free-to-air channels, so, there is always bound to be something worth watching. Like sport? Sky Sports channels let you watch International cricket, golf, the Superbowl, matches from the Premiership, as well as, the UEFA Champions league.
Want great movies? With two premier movie channels, six HD movie channels, making 12 movie channels in all and with 850 movies a month screening on Sky, their movie channels take a lot of beating. Sky, also offers the option to upgrade to Sky+, SkyHD, Sky multiroom, as well as, to upgrade your viewing packages.
