There are important changes coming with Digital Terrestrial, everything will change soon. You will be forced to throw away your antenna.
As you surely already know, given the first announcement made several years ago, Digital Terrestrial in Italy is destined to change forever. In fact, with the ultimate aim of freeing up frequencies to make room for 5G, the Government has decided to introduce DVB-T2. That is, a technology that will allow you to enjoy high definition channels and with an even wider free selection. Which requires the latest generation devices, whether TVs or decoders, capable of integrating the latest developments.
For the definitive switch off it will still take time, but in the meantime some substantial changes are arriving to deal with. So as not to be caught unprepared and be ready to continue watching your favorite channels even when everything is official. Another one was announced recently, watch out because you may have to throw away your antenna.
Digital Terrestrial: this is why (maybe) you will have to change your antenna
The director general of the Ministry of Economic Development announced the latest news Eva Spina, who in an interview wanted to explain what will be the next changes arriving on the Digital Terrestrial front. According to what has emerged, you could soon be forced to change your antenna.
- has made a summary of what was said, so as to have a clearer idea of the next steps. “A first step for the transition to the new standard has already been undertaken with the switch of a Rai concessionaire network with related information campaign. The resulting legal framework will therefore be the basis for starting the first operations necessary for the transition of one of the 3 public service networks” her words.
Then the long awaited news: “This transition could have a positive influence on increasing the diffusion of technologically adequate TV. But also on information for citizens taking into account the further technological transition….“.

If despite purchasing a compatible TV and decoder you are unable to connect and watch the new channels in high definition, it may be necessary make a change. Either independently, if not too risky or difficult, or possibly with the help of an expert antenna technician.
