CommunityTV to go digital

[Lindsay]

It's about time.
Kev and Conroy have finally extracted the digit. 

I will appreciate having my C31 programs included in the Ice Guide - when the broadcasting bit actually happens.

The Rudd Government has determined a pathway for Community Television to make the transition to digital broadcasting.

“Community Television is an important component of the Australian media landscape and I am very pleased that it now has a pathway to digital transmission,” said the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Stephen Conroy.

“I am delighted that by working closely with the Community TV sector, we have identified suitable spectrum and necessary funding to enable Community TV stations to begin digital simulcasts.”
