No, not one of my political rants but just an interesting item of "progress".
As from June 6 Australia will be shutting down the free to air analogue TV services.
Starting rather late in the piece (1956,B&W: 1975 Color) we have been well served with in recent years an almost country wide coverage of five major networks.
All analogue transmitters have been duplicated in digital and with the ability for say, five programs per channel the free to air public is well served.
Who knows what effect our much vaunted upcoming 'fiber to the home' national network will have??
