Default Astra to pull analogue plug in 2012

Astra to pull analogue plug in 2012 - Rapid TV News

Another three years to enjoy FTA Eurosport in English then.
Assuming it doesn't remove its analogue service before then.

2012 has been suggested to be the final switch off for a very long time.

We now have a concrete date for ARD/ZDF switch off: April 30 2012.
So mark it in your diaries.
