Dewy,

It is with my understanding that ONE HD is not likely to arrive to Darwin until next year sometime at the earliest. I stumbled across articles that DDT has to start content on it’s HD channel by April 2010, 2 years after DDT first started. Whether it is upconverted SD or ONE HD I do not know, but by law a station have to start showing content on HD 2 years after the station debuted on digital. But again it depends on PBL Media and Southern cross, the owner of DDT. The owner can decide not to do so deeming that Darwin is not a profitable market for ONE HD. But regardless of that, I look forward to seeing 7 TWO down the track sometime.

Jezza,

Mildura is still a Prime market, so when Prime eventually takes on 7TWO it’ll be network wide (with the exception of their GWN market). Yet, for OneHD, there’s only one MDT market & that’s Mildura.

Great. Based on One’s national ratings about 400 people in Mildura will be sitting down to watch One at night!

SD upscaled sports and SD drama on the primary channel. Way to move into the future TEN!

Good on Mildura but it’s weird that it took this long if it’s the first place to switch off the old analogue signal.

So any news if SC10 will get the ONE SD or are they now waiting on what TEN is planning for the 2nd SD to switch to programing other than sports?
