Thailand to start digital broadcast on April 1

Four Thai provinces will soon have access to digital terrestrial television (DTT) signals after the National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission (NBTC) set April 1, 2014, as the start date for system testing.
Residents in Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Nakhon Ratchasima, and Songkhla will be able to watch the new DTT system as of April 1, while the service will be extended to cover seven other provinces by June. The DTT system will cover all 22 million TV-equipped households nationwide in four years.
Meanwhile, NBTC says it will soon complete discussions on the provision of set top boxes and antennas, and how to lower the cost of these items for the public.
