Changes to TDT - Spanish Digital Television - Changes to TV in Spain

Changes to TDT - Spanish Digital Television - Changes to TV in Spain

TDT - Television Digital Terrestrial - is broadcast through waves, occupying a part of the frequency spectrum. This spectrum is shared by TV, radio, telephone and other communications.

So far TV has been using those between 21 and 69 channels.

However, in 2007 the European Commission agreed to allocate part of the spectrum occupied by television to mobile phones of the latest generation, known as 4G. In accordance with the European Directive, the Spanish Government stated that before January 1, 2015 channels 61 to 69, ie, the last 9 in the band used so far, will become available for the 4G.

This is what is called Digital Dividend.

For UK TV (Sky, Freesat) direct from the satellite, the recommended dish size for my service area is 125x135cm.
We use a Tecatel 125x135cm satellite dish, which we have found to outperform other satellite dishes of similar size - in both signal performance and build quality.
A smaller 100x110cm satellite can be used, which is the bare minimum sized dish for good reception.
Signals can be received on smaller satellite dishes (like the 90x100 "1m" satellite dish), but signals reception will not be stable.
Standard installation of a 125x135cm high performing satellite dish, wall bracket or floor stand, single output high performance LNB, and reasonable single cable run is 275 euros.
Add a Freesat HD satellite receiver, for 125 euros, and you can be watching over 100 subscription free UK TV channels, 11 of which in FULL HD.
