Sattellite tv v Digital tv

Anyone know what will happen to us travelling sat tv users when analogue tv is turned off?

Is sat tv sent up to the wild blue in analogue format or digital.

In other words, will we still get sat tv when anologue is turned off?

I can't be on the road and not be able to watch footy and v8 supercars can I!

Delta18....................fear not my good man.................!!

All your sat. TV is digital.

There are only a few free-to-air TV stations that now transmit in analogue.

All HD TV is digital as well................!!

Thanks Duckie, here in Bunbury all we get in digital is Auntie ABC and soft porn SBS.

Bring on 1 HD, then I will get a digi tv

 I have noticed that Delta, yes indeed soft porn absolutley disgusting
 A few weeks ago I was watching some movie on SBS and there are a couple and they are at it like dogs on heat and the guy has her long black (she was spanish) hair in his hands and she is saying 'Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, OOOOOOOOOOOOH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"... etc  and the subtitles read 'Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, OOOOOOOOOOOOH OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH'
Yes as you say nothing but PORN, disgusting to think we taxpayers have to pay for it....

What day & time was that one on Bas?  Is it a series? 

I want to make sure I am not watching then is the only reason I ask, truly.

At least paying for SBS is cheaper than renting dvd's

Me too, I love Rockwiz and Juilia ain't half bad either. My interest in SBS ans Auntie has risen in direct proportion to the stuff on the the 3 commercial stations

sbs has actually grown up a fair bit in recent years and is a real challenge to the commercial channels

I watch maybe two hours a week and i would give maybe half an hour to sbs, thallassa is good and a few good docco's

Ducky, spot on with the advice for sat.
