It would be an emergency solution before the will to support the emission of the autonomic channel of Catalonia while the Department of Promotion does not approve a second múltiplex that would allow to receive all the televisions of Catalan speech in the Minorcan recipients. The channel that IB3 would yield to Catalonia is the one that at present repeats the sign of the satellite television and that in the TDT appears like IB3 sat. Curiously the Balearic entity is ready to transfer a channel for a television of out when he was making sure that it was impossible to express the disconnections of the minor islands for technical questions to him.
This Plan B obeys to the fact of which to seven months of the analogical blackout, in Minorca it is not possible to see for TDT yet any of the emission of other autonomies of Catalan language like TV3, Channel 33, Channel 9 and Punt 2. All the implied autonomic governments tell that there are agreements and conversations so that his programmings could be received in Balears, although from the Consolat of Sea reciprocity is demanded and that IB3 it should be possible to see in Catalonia and Valencia with normality.
But all this is paralyzed in expectation of the approval of the second múltiplex on the part of the Department of Promotion. For the general manager of Technology i Comunicació del Govern, Antoni Machado, «with Catalonia the topic is very advanced and others two administrations seem also much predisposed to the agreement».
The possibility of seeing the autonomic channels him the beginning of negotiations has joined with the Andorran television to establish some similar agreement that facilitates the exchange of the emission.
Minorca has at present an about thirty of channels of TDT although not all the frequencies express programming. There can be seen all the televisions of state ambience that add other thematic channels that cannot be seen by the analogical television as Teledeporte of channel TVE, Factory of Fiction of TV 5 or Antenna 3 Neox and Antenna 3 Nongoes. Also there is space for the local television of the Island.
To promote the use of the decoders of TDT the regional Government reckons for an investment of 3.000.000 of euros to warn of the necessary changes to be able to watch TV from next year.
In Minorca it will take place next June 30 and will imply that will stop being expressed by waves herzianas. It will eliminate the image in the current televisions and to see the programs a few decoders connected to the recipients will be needed. These devices sell already in shops of domestic appliances and bazaars at a price that ranges between the 30 and 60 euros approximately although there are TV sets that already take the built-in device.
