According to the Government committee on transition to digital TV coverage, Estonia is largely ready for transferring to digital television, writes Postimees Online/LETA.

The committee noted that digital television that can be viewed with regular antennae covers a much wider area than the old analogue television.

 

“Today, the coverage of six Estonian digital channels is nearly 99% of Estonia’s territory, which is already much better than the old analogue television coverage,” stated the head of the Government committee for Estonia’s transition to digital television Jüri Pihel.

 

The digital signal coverage needs to be guaranteed at required quality free of charge on the entire Estonian territory before July 1 2010 when analogue television signal will be switched off and Estonia will transfer fully to digital signal coverage.
