Tony,

The broadcasting Authority (or whatever they call themselves now" have a 
list of bidders, from which they chose Boxer.  So they will now pass the 
tender on to the next in line, which is a consortium of three companies that 
includes Setanta TV, in hopes that they are still interested.  I've no doubt 
that there are more details in RTÉ News and in the on-line editions of the 
news publications.  According to what I heard (John gormely/Eamonn Ryan) the 
rollout will still go ahead, though a little later.  At any rate, to comply 
with EU rulings, analogue television will have to be switched off by 2012.

Hi All,

Wonder if any of you have anny thoughts on the today's announcement that
Boxer have opted out of DTT?

You will find podcasts on Morning Ireland, News at 1 and am sure others.

Would be good to hear from you on this!

Is DTT now dead in the water?

Tony
