100 days to the start of digital TV switchover

There are only 100 days to the start of digital TV switchover in Dundee when the analogue signals are switched off at the Angus transmitter and replaced with digital channels.

This will affect all viewers watching TV programmes broadcast via the Angus transmitter and its relays.

If you know of a neighbour, friend or relative who lives in one of the 6% of households who have not already converted their TV to digital, please get them in contact with Digital UK for advice and help
via their website or by telephoning the helpline on 08456 50 50 50.

The Switchover Help Scheme can also practically help householders make the switch to digital TV if they are:

  • are aged 75 or over;
  • get or could get Disability Living Allowance, Attendance Allowance, Constant Attendance Allowance or mobility supplement; or
  • have lived in a care home for six months or more; or
  • are registered blind or partially sighted.
