I have some questions:<br><br>What's the difference in the channels being transmitted on DVB-T2 vs DVB-T. When will DVB-T be turned off ? On DVB-T - I see ~20 channels (5 without content) + ~5 radio stations. I'm also concerned about uptake outside of Nairobi and other major urban centres. How is that going?<br>

Thank you for being a great Ambassador. With competition you are going to<br>
see the price of set top drom to as little as Ksh. 500. I hear some with<br>
conditional access will be offering popular bouque of some 50 channels for<br>
$2 (two) dollars a month.<br>
<br>
I know of new venacular entrants coming in in less than a month. More<br>
content will also come from edutainment which in my view from what I have<br>
seen is world class. Perhaps this may be the greatest opportunity to<br>
revive our own lanuages.<br>
