Penrith. Digital transmission provider for TVS

Following the Federal Government's recent decision to allocate digital spectrum and funding for the transition of community television to digital, Penrith-based TVS has announced that Broadcast Australia has been appointed as its digital transmission services provider. TVS CEO, Laurie Patton, said that the move to digital broadcasting was the channel's most significant initiative since its launch in February 2006. "Going digital means that TVS will instantly become available to a wider audience and with more viewers the station will be able to generate much needed additional sponsorship revenue,” he said. Broadcast Australia plans to have TVS simulcasting by March 2010. In addition to supplying the digital transmission facility Broadcast Australia will provide TVS with the technical capability of joining Freeview when its proprietary electronic program guide is launched next year.
