DIGITAL BROADCAST NETWORK IS BEING BUILT

The Satar Kap Company is setting up a digital broadcast network in
NKR, which will make all the TV and radio channels broadcast in
Armenia available in Nagorno Karabakh. Satar Kap has been set up
recently and digital broadcasting is a novelty in Armenia. Marie
Barseghian, the representative of the company for Artsakh, said the
digital network helps solve a number of questions which have not been
solved so far and technical problems. Marie Barseghian said the
digital network will provide quality image and stereo sound and
prevent interference from the neighboring countries. The quality of
broadcasting will no longer depend on the geography, and there will be
no problems in villages situated in mountains or gorges. `These
services will be available for both the capital and the rural
dwellers,’ said Marie Barseghian adding that digital television solves
a political question too because for a long time the broadcasting of
the Armenian channels in the border areas was obstructed by the
Azerbaijani side. According to the representative of Satar Kap, the
subscriber needs to buy a receiver which costs 120 dollars. The
programs are divided into special packages. The social package is free
of charge once the subscriber has bought the receiver. The social
package includes the public TV channels of Armenia and Artsakh and
other programs. The basic package includes business news, educational
programs, programs for kids and costs 2400 drams. Films and sports
packages cost 1200 drams. According to Marie Barseghian, the company
is going to provide more services in the future.
