ASO might be postponed


Serbia’s planned ASO for the 4th April 2012 could be postponed because of elections.
Local news agency “Beta” quoted the State Secretary for the Digital Agenda, Jasna Matic, who said it would not be a good idea to switch of the analogue TV signal during the election campaign.
The transition to DTT in Serbia is said to be slow. Matic went on to say that Serbia will help citizens who are covered by the measures of social support to purchase a DTT receiver. She added that the assessment is that there are some 300,000 households in this situation and that state support for them will be either 100% or less.
