Yesterday 15-12010 is the D-day (digital day switchover )though in pilot
stage for nationwide TV channels relaying in Thessaloniki. Most of the
western part of the city including parts of the north areas including us in
Filiro and Retziki are now able to watch the 7 TV channels via 2 transmitters
using MPEG 4 compression technology and COFDM mode.
The 7 TV channels are Ant1 Mega SKAI STAR MACEDONIA Alter and
Alpha which last year started a consortium called Digea TV to promote the
digital switchover in Greece for the commercial TV channels (separate
from the national TV network). Thessaloniki is the second point with Athens
to follow in several months but in the first semester of 2010. First press
release was on 16-12-09 and all members of the consortium started
banners from the 1rst of this year to inform for the digital switchover that
just made from the point of Filipion central part s of the city but on the
mountain) but leaving the older main point of Hortiatis (E of the city) still
using analogue mode
More for this including two coverage maps in this page
http://www.digea.gr/news/details/3/8.html
As for now 15-1-2010 and 0700 LT the switchover has been completed
using two 'transponders' on 25 and 29 for the digital format, previously
used by Macedonia TV , another (?? No info ) as spare while all other
freqs use a notification
The full digital coverage is expected to be carried out by 2012 or 2015
As per Digea site , this is the second digital network system . The first
transmission system has installed in Xylokastro (near Corinth on
Peloponisos )3 months ago and the next system will be installed in Athens
Larisa and Patra
It should be noted however that the Greek national TV network ERT is
already transmitting in Mpeg 2 digital format in Thessaloniki since mid 2007
using the transmission facilities from Hortiatis in the TV channel 56 using a
special digital package with 3+1 channels (Prisma+ ,Cine+, Sport+ ,and
RIK the Greek cypriot national TV channel)
.....
Tested my father in law's TV monitor with built in decoder yesterday 15.1
morning 0700 LT . channel 25 was with 3+1 TV channels in the clear
(Anntenna , Alpha Alter and spare ), while ch 29 due to some in band-QRM
showed halted or low-framed video (channels available MAk TV , Mega Sky
Star) , though today signal was 100% . This is possibly caused due to a 2
antenna mixed system used so far to pick signals from the two main
transmission systems.
The TV set with built in MP4 decoder offers better picture than an external
decoder connected with SCART
