This switch off means that mobile telecommunications companies will now have access to the high demand radio frequency spectrum which they bought on auction that the Independent Communications Authority of South Africa had conducted last year.
This means the availability improved high speed Internet and other technological innovations in a cost-effective manner. The SABC’s Group Executive for Technology, Lungile Binza, says they will now embark on a campaign to educate viewers on how to access the public broadcaster’s free to air channels. “We are actually not just switching off SABC 3, but we are also migrating SABC 1 and SABC 2 to below 694mhz so we would need to campaign and ensure that our people now are retuning their televisions so that they can access SABC 1 and SABC 2 services that is below 694.
