TV viewers in the Phoenix FM area will see this happening in April so they need to be ready if they don’t want to lose their TV signal!
I spoke to Liam McKay from the the Switchover Help Scheme, a campaign run by the BBC. The scheme can help everyone who is eligible disabled, aged 75 or over, registered blind or partially sighted or anyone who has lived in a care home for 6 months or more.
We talked about how easy the switchover will hopefully be, and what you need to know about retuning those set top boxes.
