Area TV station goes to digital on Aug 31
On Aug. 31, at the request of the Canadian Radiotelevision and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), most local television broadcasters will switch their current analogue signals over to digital.
Cogeco Cable, which has stations in Fergus, Rockwood, and Puslinch Township, has announced that customers will not be affected by the transition and that they will continue to receive their channels using the equipment they already have.
Cogeco customers will continue to receive their TV networks with no interruption of service. They will not need to change their actual TV set or obtain any additional equipment for any TV set connected to Cogeco’s cable service in order to maintain their current choice of channels.
In fact, the transition to digital TV will affect only TV sets that receive over-the-air signals via bunny ears or an antenna on the roof. For additional information on the move to digital, visit cogeco.ca/transitiontodigital.
Cogeco Cable’s HD customers will receive, when available, their local broadcasters programming in HD.
For more information about Cogeco services, call 1-866-950-3712 or visit Cogeco.ca.
Cogeco Cable (www.cogeco.ca) is the second largest cable operator in Ontario, Québec, and Portugal, in terms of the number of basic cable service customers served.
