MULINU’U, 28 AUGUST 2020—- Terrestrial Analogue TV Broadcast in Samoa will be completely switched- off on 31 August 2020. With this, the entire country will transition fully to the Digital TV Transmission.
The Digital TV transmission provides sharper image, high quality sound and interactive TV services that will spur future economic, social and educational needs of the country and its people.
The final cessation of the analogue TV transmission will take place on 31 August 2020, marking a historical moment for the country in marching towards digitalization of the broadcasting landscape, signifying the end of analogue TV transmission in Samoa that was commissioned in 1993.
A great deal of sacrifice and hard work had gone into bringing this initiative into fruition, particularly the unwavering support from the TV broadcasters, service providers, media and other key stakeholders.
For those who have yet to transition to the Digital TV platform, you are encouraged to do so by:-
i. Getting a set top box
ii. Relevant Antenna
iii. Relevant cables
For more information on the Digital TV set up can be found on our Office website, Office facebook page or Samoa Digital Company Limited facebook page or contact our Office at telephone number 30282.
We thank you for your continuous support and cooperation.
Respectfully,
Perelini Lameko-Masoe
(ACTING REGULATOR)
