Bureaucratic problems in the Communication Regulatory Agency (CRA) are highlighted by Sartelcom as the main reason why the introduction of an interactive pay service using DVB-T is currently stalled in Bosnia Herzegovina.
Rudof Bosnjak, owner of Sartelcom says that no regulatory framework currently exists, making progress difficult.
So far Sartelcom, a recent start-up company, have been refused a pilot licence for the project but hope that this situation will soon be reversed.
Sartelcom have also produced some interesting statistics about the TV situation in Bosnia Herzegovina which are detailed on their website http://www.sartelcom.ba
There are estimated to be 500,000 TV households amongst the 3,500,000 population an to service these households it is suggested that on each of the existing 100 transmitter sites, 5 DVB-T transmitters could be utilised giving over 20 channels.
