Congratulations Charlie Ulocha! You win todays goodie bag. Inbox us your full name, ID number and phone number and well let you know how to get it. The advantages of Digital Broadcasting are: • Better quality picture and sound information; • Much improved reception capability, including the elimination of ghosting and other transmission errors. • Flexibility to simultaneously accommodate high definition and standard definition channels, mobile TV and digital audio. • Improved security to prevent unauthorized persons from receiving services • Electronic Program Guides (EPGs). A basic EPG can be used by viewers to navigate between channels, identify the currently screening programme and the next programmme (now and next) on each channel. More sophisticated EPGs can be used to set reminders for program viewing, provide a short synopsis of the content of programs, identify programming in advance for several days, search for programs by genre, and provide access to some enhancements. • Program enhancements on separate channels to the primary program, e.g., additional camera angles on a sports match, statistics about a player, or additional information about a segment in a lifestyle or magazine program. • Broadcasters will be allowed to broadcast more than one channel when certain events, such as sporting matches, extend beyond time due to circumstances beyond the broadcasters control, and overlap a regularly scheduled news program. This will allow viewers the option of continuing to watch the end of the event or the news bulletin. • Interactive television services and data casting services, including selected Internet services, home shopping, computer games, etc will be provided by broadcasters and data casters.
