Our Bureau

HYDERABAD, Dec. 9

SAHARA TV, the 24-hour free-to-air general entertainment Hindi channel, has announced that it has set up its own modern multiple channel digital uplink earth station at Noida with both playout and uplinking facility directly from India.

With this Sahara TV goes digital from Tuesday next, offering higher quality of digital picture and sound.

The digital feed will now be extended on transponder 10-V of AsiaSat 3S.

Mr Sumit Roy, Head of Sahara TV, in a statement said that the preparation work was already completed.

"We have commenced our analogue services on transponder 10-V and 1-V of AsiaSat 3S in order to facilitate switchover by our cable operators. However, the channel, which has wide penetration, will continue to telecast both digital and analogue feed simultaneously for about a month."
