| 867030 | 2010-03-14 02:39:00 | There was plenty of warning from those in the know as to when Sky would switch off its UHF frequencies, so do these same know-it-alls have any idea who will be using these frequencies now? Will there be three additional free-to-air channels? (Trackside seems to have taken over the Discovery frequency full time.) Are there some companies waiting in the wings? Waiting for the frequencies to become available? |

| 867032 | 2010-03-14 02:47:00 | From here (www.nzherald.co.nz): Sky plans to hand its UHF and radio spectrum back to the Government and trade them for digital terrestrial bandwidth. The government will probably then sell it to a private company for a profit. |
