Synopsis
TVonics launches first retail Set Top Box to meet new Government requirements. With the digital switchover taking place across the UK until 2012 it is imperative that you have access to products and services you can trust. The TVonics MDR-240 meets all the new 'core receiver requirements' and is designed to last the life of the TV it converts. It won't get overloaded with information it can't process and will retune when necessary, meaning that the MDR-240 responds to broadcast information that tell it that a retune is needed. This means that you will automatically be prompted to retune your box when required, so you don't have to worry that your TV viewing will be interrupted.

The Switch Explained
What is the Digital Switchover?
The digital TV switchover is Government policy. It will mean that almost everyone will be able to receive higher quality digital TV through an aerial (Freeview).
Digital TV also uses less broadcast space which means that, after the switchover, there will be more room for new services such as wireless broadband, local TV and High Definition Television (HDTV).
To keep your TV service, you will need to convert your TVs to digital before the switchover date in your area - this doesn't mean you'll need to change your TV, as a set-top box can be added to most existing TVs. For more information about the digital TV switchover, and to check when the service will switch in your area, visit Digital UK
