A a member of the EC and an employee of the commerical television industry, I had our block upgraded back in 2008 to make sure we were ready for DTV.

This was largely driven by the residents who had bought great big HD flat screen TV’s that were not working that well on our system.

We replaced all the cabling, the splitters and the antenna.

I thought this to be more cost effective than trying to do it in a piece meal fashion as each resident complained after purchasing a new digital TV.

We were looking at $700 per unit to fix one at a time and $550 per unit to do all.

My block is circa 1970 and none of the existing infrastructure was digital capable. Mind you it was borderline for analogue services.

When I first moved in I applied for Foxtel as I had no luck convincing the EC to upgrade until I joined the EC.
