What do I have to do to make the switch?

To keep receiving free-to-air TV after the digital switchover in your area, you’ll need a television that is capable of receiving digital signals. There are two ways this can happen. You can either:

• Convert your existing analog TV using a digital set top box
• Upgrade to a television with an in-built digital tuner

Most importantly, you do not have to buy a new TV if you don’t want to, because virtually all current analog TVs will be able to receive digital TV by adding a digital set top box.

Digital advisors can provide you with information about the Australian Government product labels, when switchover will happen in your local area as well as the full range of options to get digital ready. Click here to find a digital advisor in your area.
