    I think Thailand needs to take a close look at other countries that have gone digital.It dose not end with the receiver the aerial will need realigning and probably need to be replaced.Distribution boxes in apartment blocks will need to be replaced and that goes for hotels Digital networks have problems with signal if they overlap.The costs involved are enormous.
