数码电视的时代，老电视还有26天就收不到台了！

TASMANIANS have just 26 days to get digital-ready or lose television reception.

At the same time, an investigation is under way to work out why viewers in Mt Stuart and some parts of Lenah Valley and North Hobart are having problems picking up the ABC through the new digital transmission tower on Mt Wellington.

A survey of residents has been conducted and representatives from the Department of Communications, the ABC and Broadcast Australia have visited Tasmania to work out the problem.

Technicians say most households appear to have already invested in a digital television or set-top box in readiness for the much-publicised final switch off of the analogue signal on April 9.

Nick Mooy, from Martin's TV Antenna Service, in Hobart, said the company had received several urgent calls for service this week, but there had been no "digital panic".

"We have had a slight pick-up in calls from those who have put off switching over," Mr Mooy said as he installed an antenna yesterday.

"But Tasmanians have had digital television for 10 years and viewers have been consistently converting to digital to get the extra channels on offer."

The signal has been progressively turned off around the state since 2010.

Householders can check if they are already receiving digital TV by tuning into ABC2, ABC3 or SBS TWO. If you can get these channels you are fine.

The digital switch-over has happened in some Tasmanian towns earlier than others.

Bicheno, Rosebery, Swansea, Derby, Dover South, Hillwood, Forth, Maydena, Neika and Leslie Vale, Tullah and King Island have already lost analogue.

Channel manager at Coogans Hobart Danny Visser said sales of new televisions had been steady.

"But a lot of customers have been coming in asking questions about being digital-ready," Mr Visser said.

Tasmania's tip shops have reported they have found it harder to resell old TVs as the analogue switch-off date moved closer.
