The Department of Electronic Communications of the Deputy Ministry of Research, Innovation and Digital Policy informs the public that as of today, the previous digital terrestrial television platform (Velister) will be reopened for a transitional period of three months, in parallel with the new Platform.
This is done in order to give additional time – beyond the three-month parallel operation that preceded it – to the portion of our fellow citizens who continue to face problems, to take the necessary actions, whether they concern the retuning of the television receivers, the supply of a compatible decoder or interventions in the reception facilities of their home.
Citizens will be able to tune their receivers to the channels on which they received until June 30, the previous platform. It is noted that new set-top boxes and television receivers are able to receive the signal of the previous platform.
It is emphasized that the period of parallel reopening of the previous platform is taking place exclusively with the aim of a smoother transition to the new digital terrestrial television platform.
